Hi everyone.

I've got a little bit of knowledge about what maybe the problem but just no idea how to solve it.  Have installed a new headunit in my car and it won't turn on, will only display the time and eject a cd!  the same problem occurs with a different head unit with a different switch connection.

so it must be a problem with the car.  the fuse had blown so i replaced that but still the same problem.  seems that switched 12 volt wire ), is not connected, or not connected properly..

i just don't know how im going to check it all though or is it something to do with a connection to the battery?  has anyone else had this problem or got any good times on how to solve it..?

VW's don't have an accessory power lead. You need to run a wire for it or get the PAC C2R-VW2.
