  • Sony Xplod CD/tuner not, erm, tuning 29 Jun 2007 (Forum)
    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
  • 1998 Espace RT-X Auto - Dash / Odometer 5 Mar 2007 (Forum)
    the light behind the radio station bit goes off occasionly, although I guess this could be a short somewhere. Anyone have any ideas? Is this a garage job or something to maybe do with fuses and the like. Any and all help appreciated, Nathan

  • Peugeot 306 Battery Charging 28 Sep 2006 (Forum)
    thinking that owing to it's short journeys, the battery might want a charge. Is it OK to leave the battery in the car and simply connect the charger to the "+" and "-"? Or, are there sensitive parts that will object, so disconnecting it first is a good idea? PS I don't know the radio code which I ought
  • Red Flag Rule From the Control Freaks 21 Aug 2006 (Forum)
    the police can see this will cause them more agrivation with the general public, ultimately alienating them still further and loosing public support. A few days ago I heard on the radio that there has been at least one new law brought in each day since 1997. No wonder the laws of the land are coming

  • Are motoring Journalists that Stupid 24 May 2006 (Forum)
    Tucson, Kia Sportage. But who makes and manufacture this Model ?? Answer: Suzuki in Hungary Suzuki markets this themselves as a SX4, same engine, same interior, same radio and same everthing except the Logo Badge's and Hub caps. So why do these Journalists go off on the beaten track talking about
  • What little finishing touches....... 27 Feb 2006 (Forum)
    in light rain at high speed, otherwise they just scrape across a dry screen. 2) A clock that assumes that I will never want to know the time if the temperature is less than 4 degrees (when it is replaced by the ice alert). 3) On the positive side - on a car I hired recently: A radio that switches off
  • Ford Ka Won't Unlock In Thru Boot Help! 9 Feb 2006 (Forum)
    to disconnect the wires on the inside of the door ( that black plastic screw cap thingy- sorry i don't know what it's called exactly) but that also disables her windows and radio! Anyone any ideas as i feel she may get ripped off on this. Thanks in advance. Lee
  • 00/01 Merc C320 total electrical failure 25 Jan 2006 (Forum)
    Car now at Merc dealer for fixing, but out of interest; a good friend was bowling along on the motorway at night in his (2000 or 2001 I think) C320 Estate when it suffered total electrical failure. Headlights, instrumentation, radio, engine - the lot - without warning save for a helpful
  • Peugeot 306 1.4 electrics gone crazy! 8 Jan 2006 (Forum)
    My daughter's 1997/8 1.4 306's electrics are playing up again. The erractic idle was the coil pack as Screwloose suggested. The garage also replaced the fuel pump relay and idle control valve as that was apparently jammed. Last night the radio kept on cutting out, then the headlights flickered

  • Unexpected pleasures 19 Nov 2004 (Forum)
    The Fabia has come with a cassette/radio rather than a CD player. I was thinking this is a major downer and that I need to swap for a Skoda Symphony (same fit, but £320!!!) or some other standard CD player, but they're all a bit showy. Then, brainwave. I've still got all my old tapes from years
  • Still got your 'ears on' ? 26 May 2004 (Forum)
    if it was the kiddy factor that killed it off - I got involved in it around '78 but very rapidly cooled off when it became legal in '81 and rapidly acquired my amateur radio licence. Although, come to think of it, haven't seen a 2m or 70cm antenna on a car lately either.
  • Focus electrical fault 18 Dec 2003 (Forum)
    My Focus has recently developed some kind of electrical fault, which I first noticed as flickering headlights, but it seems to affect all the internal lights and radio as well. The problem is intermittent, so I presume it's some kind of loose/dodgy connection. It went in for a service the other
  • Legal definition of hands-free? 1 Dec 2003 (Forum)
    is that no-go? What is you've pressed re-dial to make a call whilst using an earpiece? Are dangling ear-pieces going to be outlawed and only fixed dashboard/thru the radio systems going to be allowed? I'm not after a debate on the rights and wrongs of mobile use behind the wheel, simply a definiton in layman's
