Maintenance
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the unit's exterior. For stubborn dirt, dampen the cloth lightly with water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Disc Handling: Always handle discs by their edges. Keep them clean and free of scratches. Store discs in their cases when not in use.
- Ventilation: Ensure the unit has adequate ventilation to prevent overheating. Do not block any ventilation openings.
- Fuse Replacement: If the fuse blows, replace it with a fuse of the same rating (10A). Repeated fuse blowing indicates a deeper electrical issue that should be addressed by a professional.
Troubleshooting
1) Unable to boot normally
- Incorrect Power Connections: If the "Yellow", "Red", and "Black" wires are not connected correctly (Yellow to positive, Red to key control, Black to negative), the unit will not start. Ensure proper connections.
- Incompatible Car Wiring: The original car line and unit wiring may not match in color. Connecting them based on color alone can lead to malfunction or damage.
- Original Car Plug Incompatibility: The original car plug cannot be directly used with the new unit. Even if it fits, it may not function or could cause damage.
- Blown Fuse: If the 3 wires are connected correctly but the unit doesn't boot, check the fuse on the yellow line. If the fuse is intact, try twisting the yellow and red wires together, turn on the key, and press the unit's power button.
- Repeated Fuse Blowing: If the fuse blows repeatedly, it indicates a short circuit in the unit's protection circuit. Do not replace the fuse repeatedly. The unit may require professional repair. If all connections are verified and the unit still doesn't boot, test it with a 12V battery or power supply by connecting "yellow" and "red" to positive, and "black" to negative. If it boots, the issue is with the car's wiring. If not, the unit is faulty.
2) Automatic shut-down
- Cable Error Connect: If the blue cable (automatic antenna power supply) is connected to the power cable of the unit, an automatic shutdown will occur. Follow the correct wiring method.
- Unstable Voltage: Find a 12V-5A power supply and re-test the unit. If it still shuts down, the unit is faulty.
3) Having noise
- Small Speaker Power: If the original speaker power is too small, noise will occur when the volume is turned up. Solution: Do not set the volume too high.
- Grounded Speaker Cable: If the speaker cable is grounded, take the iron speaker cable and connect it directly to the speaker cable of the unit.
4) Settings cannot be saved (no memory)
- Incorrect Yellow/Red Connection: The yellow line and the red line are connected together. They should be separate (yellow to positive, red to key control).
- Reversed Yellow/Red: Yellow and red wires are reversed. Change their positions.
5) The product smoked, indicating internal circuit damage
If the product smokes, the internal circuit is burned. Changing the insurance fuse will not solve the problem. In this case, the unit needs to be repaired.
6) USB flash disk cannot be played, or card slot does not accept card
USB flash disk cannot play: Format the USB flash disk to FAT32, re-download one or two songs, and try again. If it still doesn't work, replace the USB flash drive.
Card slot does not accept card: Check whether the memory card is inserted correctly, or if the plug is broken.
7) FM does not receive radio stations
- Antenna Issues: The antenna plug is not fully inserted, the antenna is disconnected, or the line is broken.
- Channel Search: Search for channels by holding AMS for 2 seconds to auto-search, or use the up and down buttons. If issues persist, unplug the antenna plug and try inserting a screwdriver or metal strip instead of the antenna to test reception.
8) There is no sound right after installation
- Short-circuited Speaker Cable: Check if the speaker cable is short-circuited and connected. Reconnect if necessary.
- Incompatible Speaker Cables: If your original car has only 2 speaker cables, it indicates that the original car line does not match the unit. You need to re-route the original car line. One speaker must lead to 2 speaker wires. 2 speakers must have 4 speaker cables available.
9) There is no sound after a while
Disconnect all speaker cables from the unit (do not remove them). Then, find an external speaker and connect it to the gray and purple wires of the unit's tail line (left and right audio output). If there is sound, it means the car's speaker line is short-circuited with iron or the speaker is damaged. If there is no sound, the unit is broken.
