No Bluetooth with Ground Loop Noise Isolator Connected

Perhaps it's designed to not turn on if it doesn't detect a signal. In that case, maybe the noise isolator is dampening the signal too much?

You're sure the noise isolator works fine in other applications?

 

If you end up not solving the problem, I’d recommend this for $40

 

Search for B01HDO66NK on Amazon. It didn't show up for you because you're using an ad blocker.

 

I just looked at the item. I suspect the USB is only for power. If you don't have a USB port nearby, you'd have to figure out some kind of extension. You could possibly MacGyver your own power supply by splicing into nearby wiring. If you're going to do that, there are cheaper options out there.

 

Seems there may be some confusion on what this simple device does.
The device I cited is a simple Bluetooth receiver that has two connections. The first is a USB for Power, the second is an audio cable.
It works in Gen 2 Prius’s by locating it in the center console right next to the cigarette lighter power socket and the AUX in audio port,
You also need, if you don’t already have one, a simple cheap $5 USB cigarette lighter plug adapter that provides 5v to the USB.
This device is tiny and works flawlessly by cooperating and working independently of the cellphone Bluetooth system in the Prius.
It has a very very high quality audio using an LDAC and ground loop noise elimination circuit.
It automatically pairs with your phone and in fact also another phone simultaneously upon power up of the car if you want two people to be able to share audio to the Prius.
There is no other wiring required. No MacGyvering. Just connect in the console to the AUX and USB power with included short cables.
The reason I brought it up here was because the OP was having ground loop audio noise problems. It is definitely NOT too complicated to use. It may however not be what the OP wants to use.

 

Hijacking? Get real.
I was responding directly to a posting that implied complexity of using the device.

 

Your comment is ridiculous
