Hi All,
Ok so the head unit on the RRS failed, all the buttons had popped their connections rendering them useless. So i go and purchase another unit which has a slightly different part number, but is exactly the same unit otherwise.
Tried to install with no joy at all, no sound from new unit and no light from the display, so decided best action was to try and basterdise the two, taking the front fascia plate from the good unit and transplanting to the old unit....should work right ?????
On re installing there was nothing again, just interference like there was no stations selected, would not select between cd/aux/fm and the volume button had stopped working !!!
So stripped out again and reverted to putting the original old unit back in the car..... now this wont work either ! same as above with nothing working just the continuous noise of interference.
On researching the net i have found a few sites that have stated that these units are interchangeable, ie the 2005 head unit can be replaced by a 2006 unit or even 2007 the only difference being the part numbers.
Can anyone advise on this further.... just cannot understand why the original unit will now not work, dont want to go and splash another £400 for another head unit that potentially will not work....
