Featured Replies

hi all the last couple weeks my steering wheel controls for the music have been playing up it doesn't change track and its temperamental with volume control any idead to what it could be 

thanks



Ive got a spare set of controls for a prefacelift you can have for p&p. Theyre red instead of blue (my steering wheel currently has red CC but it should be blue haha)

 

It will work fine and its a  cheap easy possible solution

had a pot around on the site and someone had put that disconnecting the battery for 10 mins did the job ill see if this works tonight after work see if it fixes it.

Disconnecting the battery may well fix it. I took mine for it's 2nd service last week with the music buttons playing-up (as usual). Collected the car and it's fine again for a few days no doubt, then it'll be back to stupid.

Garage phoned to say new buttons had arrived. I said forget it, it's working fine and I believe it's a Sony dab/canbus problem.

Ahhh, we can't return them so you'll have to have them fitted. Seems to me, any electronics problem and you're doomed.
