germinus Posted May 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 How do you reset?? Remember I cant get into settings to do anything as its a blank screen. I have tried everything! And the unit never stayed on when I shut the engine off the first time. I think the unit is dead cant see any sign of power, even the iphone doesnt make that nose it makes when you first plug it in Quote Link to post Share on other sites
germinus Posted May 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 So how do you reset when you can't use the unit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 Unplug it. But it does sound like it is dead so you will likely need to have it replaced. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Henri Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Make sure the 12Vdc for saved the informations is off to. The unit have two DC power: -one when you turn on the car. -one PERMANENT for save your settings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Element905 Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 Mine did this a couple times since owning it. Within the first couple of months it had gone black on me. But my Bluetooth was still connected. I would leave it for a few hours and it would come back. Has not done it since last september. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
