MarkP 0 Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 Please help me, I wanted to remove my standard Sony head unit to see about fitting the CD changer and after going to by some removal keys from halfords, the helpful chap told me to simply unscrew the front of the head unit and pull it out. No need for keys. So unsuspectingly I've done this and at the second I removed the last screw in the head unit and have it a little pull it started beeping the loudest most ear piercing noise I've ever heard. How do I shut it up? The thing is I wanted to continue using the head unit but it won't stop beeping even if I screw it all back together and put it in the car. I can't leave it in the car beeping all night as my neighbours will kill me, so it's not inside my small flat wrapped in a towel and I can't leave it in here as it's doing my nut in and my neighbours will kill me. So at this rate I'm going to have to drive somwhere remote and bury it tonight if I can't kill the noise.So is the head unit now knackered? It stil works when plugged in but won't shut up. I realise it's a secutiry measure but can I shut it up? It is my head unit etc and is the factory standard one in the MK3 VR6 highline. I don't know what to do, please help!!!!!!!Mark Beeping in bournemouth... Link to post Share on other sites
MarkP 0 Posted August 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 I've read some other threads and people don't seem to have any idea how to stop it. Is is even possible? Othrwise by trying to fit my cd chager have I killed a perfectly good head unit?? Am I going to have to smash it up now? Noooo please say no... I don't have the money for another one..Mark Link to post Share on other sites
MarkP 0 Posted August 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 Bucket of water didn't drown out the noise enough, the hammer did. Gutted as i wasn't planning on replacing the head unit just yet. :-( Link to post Share on other sites
MarkP 0 Posted August 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 I also noticed that there are what seem to be factory fitted phono and CD changer cables (so I more than likely didn't even need to remove the headunit to begin with.. ) fitted. Does anyone knwe where the other endof the cables will be? I looked inthe boot but couldn't see them. It doesn't look like there has ever been a CD changer in my car.I started a new thread here:http://www.vr6oc.com/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?131747CheersMarkSilent in Bournemouth Link to post Share on other sites
