Hi,
not a good idea to post personal stuff on any forum m8, I speak form experience :)

I am sure keith can come up with a solution soon, he is the guy to ask on this sort of stuff

Andy good spot I missed that, Bob not always a good idea posting private info the google bots will collect it and before you know it you will have won a hedge trimmer that you must collect from the north pole!

As for your nav bits hopefully someone local to you can help test otherwise maybe a dealer with another Hi-Line car could do it.

And if you really get stuck stick them all in a box and I will check them for you

Robert,

Can you give us a bit more info on your problem...

1... Radio/ Tv has been operating for past .... xx months trouble free ?

2... TV picture is good, only sound problem on TV

3... How/ when did it fail, any... water in the area, settings changed, other electrical work carried out in the car before the fault ?

4... In TV mode, under the SET menu is Great Britain selected ?

5... Have you tried the usual disconnection of the battery/ cup of tea repair ?

thanks for reply

the tv / radio worked ok until the boot got water in it
i removed both tv / radio took off top and bottom cover of each unit and let them dry out on domestic radiator

on replaceing them the radio worked ok the tv picture returned but the only sound from the tv is very very faint with some white noise over it

countrry is set to uk
although i have not disconected the battery i feel that removal of the units would be the same

the sat nav works ok

thanks for your help
