Hi, quick question for anyone with electrical audio experience...
I have a ve commodore that I have just purchased and been having issues with the electrical connections in the headunit. Whilst taking son to football this morning the complete headunit and screen went black and never came back, have no controls on radio, can't control AC, hazard lights don't work so the headunit has died. It had been doing this on and off for a few weeks now sporadically.
Upon discovery today the guy I brought the car from had for some reason been inserting coins in the cd player (found 85c in 5 coins), why someone does this confused me but anyway lol.
Question to the knowledgeable, if this has fried my headunit which I am taking it has.. then there will be power running to the wiring harness that plugs into the headunit... If it is a blown fuse or a relay there will be no power at this point? So I can simply run a multimeter on this point and see if there is power?
Just trying to work backwards on where / what the problem may be.
Appreciate your time and feedback, thankyou
