HEY GUYS I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT THIS SITE ALL NIGHT AND FOUND THAT I COULD TEST AN N2 BUY HOOKING UP THE POWER AND THE ACC AND THE GROUND TO A BATTERY I DID THAT AND THE UNIT POWERS ON OPENS UP AND THEN IT GOES OUT... THE SCREEN ALSO DOES NOT COME ON. ANY IDEA WHAT THIS COULD BE.......... I AM TRYING TO INSTALL THIS ON A 1998 DODGE DURANGO, I BOUGHT THE UNIT AS A LOT (OFF A LIQUIDATION SITE) WITH NO WIREHARNESS... I GOT ONE FROM A LOCAL SHOP AND IDK IF ITS THE UNIT OR THE BRAIN ANY INFO WOULD HELP THANKS... TRYING TO GET THIS DONE BEFORE MY SKIING TRIP TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND ITS 3 IN THE MORNING AND I AM STILL TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT!

First Capslock off. Second odds are the flex cable is bad. Which means a trip to pioneer for the avic.

^^^^^Hahahaha

damn awesome to have the necessary pics at the right moment

HaHa!! Aight I get it I its was 5 in the morning was just easier! Could it possibly be anything else or it has to be that? Thanks!

It's very possible that it's something else. however 99.9% of the avics I've seen with the problem you're describing it's been traced back to the flex cable being bad.

Ok... I have been reading that pioneer fixes that for free. Is that true?

yes they will fix it for free since it was a bad part on their side.
