On our recent trip abroad, FM radio sometimes stopped and the volume control did nothing.  I usually listen to DAB and when we were back in the UK, DAB worked fine, but I was in Lithuania for 2 weeks and there was no DAB to listen to there.  If DAB works, I'm not to worried about FM, but I must try FM in the UK to see if it behaves the same as when we were abroad.  SWMBO looks after the radio when we're on the move and selected FM as soon as we were in France to listen to Nostalgie, so I'm not sure what DAB stations are available in other countries we passed through, such as Germany and Poland.

This problem effects my whole unit, radio, CD, SD, sat nav etc, but when volume decides to work, all these work then also. Then once turn car off and restart, usually no volume

Hi all, I'm trying to remove head unit in glovebox now, just received keys, there doesn't seem to be any room at all behind unit to get to wiring, I can barely see them. Is there any way around this, or safe to pull unit out more? Cheers

Pull it out, with gentle force :)

I'm trying to get unit out, plugs are awkward to loosen, trying to press latch and pull, but no luck. Does the plastic cover come out along with the plug, or just the wire plug itself? One side is easy to loosen, the dab part, but can't seem to loosen the 4 single connections

The plug needs to come out. See that wee circular hole, press that in with something pointy and wiggle the connection out.

Hi, very long delay since last post, I was away, car is still the same no volume...Harman mib2 unit in glovebox, just trying to take the unit out, I can't seem to disconnect the pins from the rear of unit, and can't find any videos online to help...I'm afraid of pulling too hard at the connections in case of breaking one.  Need to get unit out and send it away for repair asap I'm hoping

Previous advice is still valid

 

Other option is to remove glovebox for more access

Don't need to remove glovebox I cut cable tie holding the left cables so enough room, I just can't seem to disconnect the plugs on right side of unit to remove it, the white blue and yellow connections
