volt battery in the device is sound too. Apart from the radio stations what else might we lose if we just disconnected the old and fitted the new? Is there still a radio code on cars such as this? Or what else in the electronics might get lost in the move? Thanks. -

lights were on. They went off when the car was started, moved 3 feet, and stopped and all seemed ok for the rest of the day. The next morning the battery was completely and utterly flat - no alarm, central locking, radio, even the clock had reset. 3) As well as the above, for some time -
Ipod through a 3.5mm 'Aux-in' plug 31 Jan 2007 (Forum)
Hi, I am changing my car soon and I want to use my Ipod in my new car. According to the Dension website, they don't make a 'wired' link for a Ford S-max with the 6006 stereo, only a FM radio link. In past experience, FM radio links are not really that good. It's a shame because | have -
Computer Related Questions - Volume 103 9 Oct 2006 (Forum)
