Fiat Bravo Music Centre

[Bravo Girl]

Hi guys

I've got an X Reg low mileage Fiat Bravo (top car) with built in Radio/Cassette/6 CD Player. Wee problem - the music centre keeps turning itself off (and not necessarily on uneven road surfaces), then turns itself back on a few moments later but always goes back to where it was (radio station/cd track etc). I've checked the fuse - that was clean, cleaned the heads on the CD player, cleaned the CD's themselves, no joy. Any ideas ?

Hi, i had a seat ibiza with a non standard kenwood unit in and this happened to me, it seemed to be the heat of the unit to be honest, at first i would hit it and it would be oh k lol normally out of frustration i would hit it, didnt expect it to work, just kinda did.

anyway it got worse and i presumed it was heat as the unit would get very hot very quickly, i since have changed cars and have had no problems with the same unit so i presume it was the fuses of some sort, or just some dodgy wiring from the ignition to the centre console.

Should have mentioned that I've repeatedly pressed the on/off switch, in case that was sticking....

Thanks KS. The unit doesn't get hot though like yours did but I'm guessing it's a dodgy connection somewhere, which is going to be nice and difficult to get at ! As I mentioned, I'd already checked the fuse in case it was a dirty fuse, but it looked clean. Haven't tried hitting it - not angry enough yet. Glad to know I'm not cracking up though.
