QPV weird NIT problem - any ideas?

[Harvey_Tim]

Leave it for a couple of weeks see if the stereo behaves itself and if you decide to reconnect Parrot etc and the problem returns well then you know wot you have to do.

Thanks, but as per my last post the Parrot is still plugged in anyway.

However I do have another update, yesterday the problem had returned but I found that after switching the stereo on and off 4-5 times it rectified itself and worked fine. And again today exactly the same - i.e. when I had parked the car up it was working fine, but today the problem returned however after 4-5 times switching the NIT on and off it worked fine and did so for the duration of my 1.5 hour journey.

All very odd … but if I can consistently work around it by switching it off and on multiple times then that’s fine by me!

That make me think a faulty on off / volume switch could well be your issue, as you have said - frustrating for sure

@MarkMas has an intermittent issue with his stereo but I can’t remember the symptoms or how it was eventually sorted.

I’ve fixed it, there was a break in the 12v ignition switched wire in the loom. Ran a new wire from the fuse board it now works.

ah, so not the same issue ……

I meant to say “had” as I know it was fixed, just wondering if it was a similar issue.

The car also had a further issue before he owned it where we replaced the front panel with all the buttons on. It was firing up randomly and flattening the battery.

I do have a spare front panel for sale.
