Ok, the knob under the source button on the bottom left of the unit has broken off, i have the knob but the pin that comes out of the unit snapped, the pin snapped flush with unit. is there anything i can do to fix this? The pin comes attached to the unit right?

you could probably buy a replacement part at pioneer. It will most likely run you 30-50 dollars for that piece.

See if Circuit City has a NIB or even open box AVICD2 in stock. Take the face apart and swap the knobs/pin. Then super glue your broken knob to the new AVICD2, put back in box and return. Stick it to the man.

that is really fucked up! Don't do that, because then the person who buys it next will be the one who is screwed. Not the man. If you want to stick it to the man, steal the D unit from him.

Not to mention it's going to be hard to find a cc that has a d in stock. None of them in jersey atleast have any. As always sticking it to the man can be a good thing

i had the same problem 1 year ago. The only way to fix, was to change the whole knob inside the unit.

 

I didn't do it, since it would be a pain inda butt to do it.

 

i rarely use that knob, so i have to live with it. I only use it to setup the equalizer.

 

i have my steering remote to switch tracks.
