My car is fitted withe the Visteon 6000CD but as far as I know not Bluetooth (no signs of Voice on the stalk).

Unfortunately the radio/CD playback (probably Aux too if I used it) keeps being interrupted & the display shows "PHONE". This is happening enough to be a complete pain. Often the only way to restore sound is to switch it off & then on again.

Anybody else had this?

Could it be a firmware problem & if so how can I check version & update?

Any other suggestions?

bump.

Am I just the "lucky" one?

I'd pull the radio forward and check that all wires and plugs in the back of the quadlock connector are secure.

Be sure you have your radio code before doing so!

A wire moving around is a likely cause of the random phone situation, although I have searched for this error and it has been recommended to put a resistor into the system to stop an apparent problem where random power feedback can give a false phone connection signal to the radio

From AVForums.com-

Problem should be solved by short-wiring pin 5/6 but nevertheless I have connected 500 ohm between pin5 and 6 on B second connector just to be ensure that low current flows (12/500 = 12 mA) if by any chance phone-mode wire connects to ground. For better appearance i soldered 500 ohm SMD resistor inside the radio on radio's motherboard.

Thanks for the reply.

It seems to have stopped for the moment so it could well be a poor connection that is being jiggled about.

I've connected ping 5 and 6 with 500 ohm resistor. Radio still showing "phone" on screen. Maybe i've connected wrong pins. Pins connected in my radio are "Phone Mode" and ".+5V". Is that ok?
