Title: original double din issues need help
Post by: adeyk9 on January 29, 2015, 10:52
okay so its been a while since ive used my 2 got into it the other weekend took it for a spin on private roads  s:) :) s:)  as the car was not taxed and m.o.t anyway long story cut short i cant seem to see a power on button anywhere. Im sure  the damn thing would normally come when i clicked md/tape cd or radio buttons but last night the radio was on. i pressed the off button and now the display lights up displaying the time but none of the buttons are doing anything!!! i know most people would change the double din but i like the retro fit so any help would be great also dont know if its to.do with how my sister lodged the tape/wire aux thingy majigg the wrong way now the tape icon is on and the time is displayed no other functions are working all started when i pressed OFF please help.

Fischer Price HU should come on when you press a function and go off when you press the tiny off button.

Is the "tape/wire aux thingy majigg" still stuck in there then?

Is it the one with 2 fuses? Mine had a separate fuse for the radio and the rest of it, iirc... Both in the nearside door pillar. Might be worth checking.
