Sony Xplod CD/tuner not, erm, tuning - barchettaman
Quick question for any ICE experts out there.

My Astra has a Sony Xplod XR-CA630X stereo fitted (aftermarket) with a 6 CD changer attached.

Recently the radio bit has stopped working. When you try and scroll through the functions, it will only offer the CD player and cassette as options. Anyone got any idea as to why this might be the case? CD changer and cassette still work fine.

I haven´t tried anything just yet (including resetting the unit). Could the ariel lead have fallen out the back, or something? Thought I would ask here first.

Thanks in advance,
Barchettaman

Even if the aerial had dropped out you would still get poor reception on fm and the display would still work.Disconnecting the power to it may reset it otherwise its back to repairer.
