But remember this. When an owner decides to lock there headunit for security reasons , They can enter any 4 digits they choose. Can you contact the previous owner ? Just in case......

Yes I checked the fuse. The manual only shows the fuse behind the trash tray. Is there another one? The radio does nothing. Nothing on the display. This happened after I let the car set for a week with a bad battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
