Hi again. Upon further investigation(and some useless mails from Kenwood) i think i may have found the problem. I have a feeling that my chap (not the guy selling the one on this thread!) supplied the unit with the incorrect wiring loom from what i can see in the wiring diagram in the instruction manual. The wires in Connector B seem to match up (Purple, Grey, White and Green and the same with a black stripe) however connector A is completely different as follows: A1= Grey single wire (coiled with A3) A2= Blue single wire A3= White (coiled with A1) A4= Blank A5= Blank A6= Two yellow wires A7= Two black wires A8= Blank If any of you guys that purchased a unit for the guy on here has a little time i'd very much appreciate it if you could simply check to see if your wiring setup is different to mine and replicates what is in the installation manual. (Not sure what my chances are of getting a refund though :-( ) Thanks very much in advance.

Hi all, I've bought one of these (not from this chap) thinking this was a simple plug and play and when fitting it (into my Fabia II Estate) i was frustrated to find that the unit does not turn on. There is definitely power to the unit as it takes and ejects disc perfectly fine and the red LED flashes (cannot find any trouble shooting associated to this in the manual). However when i press the power on button, nothing happens. I've tried pressing the rest button but nothing happens (not sure if i have to hold it for a set period of time though) and i've tried the unit with the ignition off, on and with the engine running and nothing changes. If anyone else has this problem and manages to find a fix, i'd very much appreciate it if you could give me some advice. Or if anyone can think of the issue i'd also welcome any advice. Does the unit need a specific wiring loom for each car make or does it use the same one to fit into Skoda, VW and Seat? (perhaps i have a VW one). I've tried contacting Kenwood and to be honest they're not much help and don't even seem to read my mail properly. Help ........ Please Thanks
