Marchy65 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Last trip I shut the radio down at night and was working fine. First thing the next morning it wouldn't power up. Have got under the dash (great concept the "black box" but man it's a lot of work to get to). There is power at the 12v plug on both pins. The whole ethernet type 8 pin connector worries me. I can't see anything obvious and all 8 pin RJ type plugs and contacts look perfect, clean, shiny and no corrosion. There is a little printed circuit board in between the two connectors and the dash gland connector so maybe there's a problem there.....has anyone had similar issues? I'm at the point of taking it to an electronics repairer to get it looked at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingie chaser Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Have you checked the fuses? Either in a fuse box or an inline fuse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noelm Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Unless it's under warranty I doubt you will find anyone who will repair it, it's the throw away era now, so, unless you can find something simple yourself, it's time to go shopping.

Marchy65 Posted January 25, 2021 Author Share Posted January 25, 2021 Kingie Chasr as per original post there is 12 volts going into the black box unit. Have just sent back to GME service center in Sydney and asked them to consider honoring warranty as it only expired October 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
