Radio doesnt boot up from start
« on: 22 July 2010, 23:36:37 »

Hi all,
A wierd problem occurred tonight. I always leave my radio switched on so that when I fire my 51 plate Elite up I get music! however tonight the readout showed nothing, not the BOSE sign nor even the time and date (which is the default off mode!) I turned ignition off and back on hoping this would solve said problem but to no avail. The car currently is sitting with the radio lights on and read out in top showing outside temperature, I presume this is now draining the battery  :-/ 
Any clues how to reset the radio would be very helpful

Thanks  :)

Try removing the radio for one hour, refit, enter code and see what that does for you.

Hi Dave

Thanks for the reply,

Car seems to have reset itself overnight, very spooky. it is playing tricks with me!

I wonder what she will have in store for me when I reach it tonight after work.

on ncdc 20xx head units the reset is press and hold clear for 6 seconds, just for info.

wonder if plug in display is loose?

had similar issue when removing head unit without didconecting battery. Display dead, lights on hu, but nout else. Disconnect/re connect battery and all normal. again.
