Hi-line headunit only tunes on odd numbers

niallb · 19th June 2014, 11:56

Hi everyone,
My new zt has a hi-line unit in the dash but the radio will only go up or down in odd units. So I can't tune in very many stations. I have read the manual but can't figure out how to change the way it changes frequencies to .1 at a time instead of .2's
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Anyone ever experienced this?

20 years ago when I sold ICE, we had this issue with someone trying to bring a stereo to us for a warranty repair. Turned out he had bought it in the US and the tuner's increments were different. Is it for a different market?

Or perhaps, making sure you have the code, and the sat nav has completely powered down, if fitted, disconnect the battery for 30mins, maybe will reset it.

Try this reset procedure for the high line ICE, it might help

ROVER 75 HIGH LINE ICE RADIO RESET PROCEDURE.

If the radio in this vehicle sticks on one station and you are unable to select anything other than tape or CD please carry out the following procedure to reset the unit.

1. Switch off unit using main on/off button (one with the orange tell tale on the bottom right of the unit)

2. Switch on the unit using the same button

3. Within 8 seconds press and hold the TP button, on the unit, until the radio station read out re-appears and music etc can be heard

4. Switch off the unit again

5. Switch the unit back on and you can then select all radio bands along with CD, tape and tuner.

This should reset your Highline Radio, and hopefully cure the problem. It certainly fixes the issue of only being able to receive AM stations, or having it stuck on one FM station only.

Thread moved to Highline ICE section BTW
