Hey guys, I'm sorry if this post is in the wrong forum but recently I've installed a Kenwood DDX4018bt head-unit into my 2005 VZ SV6 and all was great until I noticed a few days later it drained the battery, so I changed it up and alas, it drained again. Not only does it seem to be drawing...

Hi there, I've owned my 2006 Commodore Wagon for a little over a year now and it's been an absolute gem, but the radio/cd and lights have always acted a little weird, and gotten worse over time. My first issue was that when I would keep the auto lights function ON, the backlight for the...

I've just developed a radio frequency interference problem. Before everyone chimes in with "ground loop" it's not an alternator whine or anything like that. This is directly related to charging my phone through the cigarette lighter plug. When my phone is plugged in the radio experiences...

Hey all, long term lurker on the forum. I own a 2001 VX Berlina, all is stock on the vehicle besides my Fusion sub (built in amp), a Kenwood KDC-U346 unit and my VY SS rims. I've never had any issue with the car until the last couple weeks when I noticed my sub stopped working. I hadn't had the...

hello, everyone and happy new year. My factory blaupunkt stereo sounds ok, but the temperature and air conditioning knobs don't work. I can regulate the fan speed, but the temp control is stuck on hot, which makes it uncomfortable on these summer days. For Christmas, my son bought me a new facia...

Hi Guys, I've got an issue with my vs aerial. The height can be controlled by the buttons under the radio but it does not stay in position as it will retract all the way as soon as I release either up or down button. It is connected via a Pioneer deck, which I have read to cause potential...

Hi, I got my car serviced nearly three weeks ago on the Wednesday. On the Thursday when I went out in the car and as I was driving I noticed that the time was out by a lot. The radio stations were still preset the same. I thought it was weird but figured it was a once off thing. The next...

Morning, Since the day I got my VE Calais (Series 1, non V) I've noticed that the left hand controls (change track/preset on steering wheel) scroll wheel only sometimes works, also the station or track I'm on in the digital speedo window sometimes doesn't appear. If I spam the TRIP button on...

Hope this is the right place to ask this because no one else can help me. I've got a problem with my 2002 commodore wagon where the radio won't turn off/not use the battery. Usually I can't turn on the radio without the keys turned in the ignition but since last Thursday it's constantly in...

Hi, My VE omega radio turns off after driving for about 5 minutes and won't turn back on until the car has been parked for awhile. Then sometimes it will then turn on only to turn itself off again after about 5 mins. driving. Thought it might be the fuse but if that was the case it would just...

OK my 09 sv6 has reception issues on FM radio. It has a BMW Ariel which is small compared to the stock one so maybe that's the issue. Is it hard to run in an FM ampilifier or even better a digital radio reciever? Let me know your thoughts.

I've tinted my VE sedan and have since found that the radio signal has reduced. (I know this is because the rear window demister acts as an antenna). I've purchase one of these off ebay :- Can someone in the know tell me if I can actually fit this to my VE? If so, what's the best...
