xiii Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Sorry to start up any hopes, but I'm just chiming in to say that my unit is also having this exact problem. Started yesterday. Please someone report back with a fix! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xiii Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 After tinkering with it for two days, it finally let me have its way with it and let me update the system via SD card (format). Now it works, but I wonder for how much longer again.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

billc1015 Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 Just had this problem with my 900bt. Will check the power supply tomorrow. Hopefully it will be something simple. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
N2ROW Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 Well I guess Ill join the family as well. My FT90BT stopped working as well 2 nights ago. The first time it happened I got some foriegn language on the screen and thats it. So I turned off the radio and rebooted. Same problem So I reset the radio. Now I get nothing. It turns on the lights on the buttons, than my splash comes on after 30 secs. poof. DOA. And this is a stock radio with 3.0. in it. I pulled it last night and put a D3 in its place. I have a power supply so I would like to defibulate it and get it working again. So you think this is a boot problem or hard drive? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pionara Posted December 14, 2011 Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 if it comes on at all, then you can probably save the unit by reflashing with latest sw. take a look here: http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/27807-fx31-complete-firmware-image/ if you can boot into the blue uboot menu, then you can re-flash os, then proceed on to copy over system files.

txjeep Posted December 14, 2011 Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 My 7010bt is doing the same thing. I have not touched the software in almost two years, and it has no mods. It has been working fine. Then it started acting weird a week or so ago (some of my settings mysteriously changed). Next thing I know it won't boot up anymore (get flash screen and then it goes blank). I have seen a few posters on this site that are having the same issue. From what I am reading, it looks like the unit has had a catastrophic failure of some sort. Disappointing to say the least. I would rather buy a new one than spend $200 getting this one repaired. Question: Do other Pioneer units use the same wiring harness? In other words, if I wanted to buy a different unit and not have to rewire everything again, what other models have the same connectors as the 7010bt (if any)? Thanks Edit: It's a 7010 not a 710.

pionara Posted December 14, 2011 Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 right... well, i would recommend giving reflashing with latest 3.1 a shot.. could revive your unit. If you want to go to another avic, the pioneer power harnes will be likely similar, but may have a few pins in different locations (parking brake, etc). The other big difference you may see is the AV harness. You can find a link to the f700bt (same as f7010bt) service manual in pdf on these forums. You can see the exact pinout of power and av harness. Then you will need to look at service manual for the unit you are thinking about getting and check pinouts (especially av harness).

txjeep Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 Pionara was right. The following procedure fixed my unit! Easy as pie, too. It is better than ever now. http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/27807-fx31-complete-firmware-image/ Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
