hi

have just bought a z32TT uk 1990 spec, manual!:nana2:

But i seem to have problem with the original stereo and cd player, they dont turn on. All i have is the little red LED code light flashing but im unable to put a code in because there just doesn't seem to be any power, the screen dont light up. Although when i put the headlights on, the dash lights including the lumination lights on the stereo do come on?? can anyone help,

 

cheers guys

regards

the orig units are now 15 years old better off dumping them and getting replacements

Sounds like you only got one feed to the stereo, you should have two, one battery, one ignition.

Give this link a try.

hi mate, i did check both feeds and fuses they seem ok. I just inserted a cassette into the stereo and it worked but still no screen or sound. Im thinking maybe its gone into some sort of code mode (poet lol) where you have to keep the unit(s) on for an hour etc for the code to come up? has anyone come across this before?

tried the dealers they're useless! said to pay them and they might be able to get me a code, but told them there is no way of inputting the code in the 1st place!

 

could anyone confirm if i do have to leave the power on for an hour etc for the 'code' thingy to appear on the screen?

 

cheers fellas

sorry for all the Q's, but i dont want to buy a another unit if i dont have to, (mr white zed) :rolleyes:

Well if you've followed the proceedure on the second page in the link, and you still don't have anything on the screen, I'd probably say that the unit is knacked!! (well the screen anyway)

Sounds like the units dead if you got nothing on the screen, Did you check the feeds with a test light?

i have enquired about the problem, and apparently it is a common one! i am now trying to find out how to input the code which can be retrieved from dealers. does anyone own the nissan zx manual that you get when you buy the car, it may have some soloution there.

 

please help
