Loki Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 (edited) I have a 2009 370z with Nav and Bose system, I tried to fit an aftermarket headunit, it was a 12 inch touchscreen I imported from China, this was probably my first mistake. After fitting it, it switched it on but there was no sound and the air conditioning wouldn't work, the unit came with another loom, so I tried this and nothing happened. It didn't switch on at all. So I took it apart again thinking it's broken and put the old system back in, the CD part did power up because I heard the mechanism searching for CD's but apart from that nothing, no screen, no air con and on top of that the wing mirrors won't open either. I'm guessing/hoping it might just be a blown fuse or two but I'm kind of expecting something worse, in its current state I don't feel it's safe to drive, especially if the windscreen steams up and since I can't see behind either. Not sure if this is relavent but the brake pedal feels different when starting the car as well, there was a consistent feel before, now I press the pedal to start and I can feel the brake servo start working, the pedal drops a little and it feels like it did before. After a little bit of Internet research, it looks like both the stereo and mirrors work off the same fuse. If anyone has had a similar problem or has any advice I would really appreciate any help Thanks Edited March 24, 2023 by Loki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marzman Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Car is definitely infected. Chinese government is monitoring you now. 😅 You mention the fuses might be blown and have confirmed that the impacted services run off the same fuse... have you actually checked this?

ZMANALEX Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Get the multi-meter out and get checking those fuses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
