2011 titanium X focus - stereo/entertainment system stopped working...

Featured Replies

Hi all

Please please can someone help, over a year ago now I was driving along and the stereo decided to turn off and it hasn't worked since. 

The display where the clock is doesn't work, Bluetooth, cd player, speakers all dead. The hazard light  button works and the door lock button.  

Fuses have been checked, all ok ( unless I've missed one) I've swapped the head unit for another and still nothing. ( Though can't be certain the replacement worked as it came from eBay listing said it was working) 

The head unit part number is BM5T-18C815-DK

 

Does any one have any idea what it could be or what I should check next please



Try removing the negative battery lead for a while and see if it works after replacing it again.

We've tried that and still nothing. Thanks for replying though 

Follow the leads through the cars firewall see if there's any chaffing or disconnects.My friend had a similar issue, and it was a short near the main fuse box beside the battery. It's a pain in the proverbial to work on, but if you've checked the fuses/head unit then the only option is to see if you're getting data and/or power through the leads. Power is easy with a multi-meter to determine if there's juice or not.
