Practical guides to factory radios, navigation systems and amplifiers.
Handing a radio or navigation unit to a general electronics technician is only really safe for simple power or audio faults. In OEM systems, the problem is often not the failed component itself, but the linked…
Choosing between an authorised dealer and a specialist service changes not only the cost of the repair, but also the way the root cause of the fault is traced. In OEM radios and navigation systems, the problem rarely concerns only…
Car audio and navigation electronics are increasingly operating as part of the vehicle’s entire system. If a module is linked to the VIN, equipment coding or the CAN, LIN or MOST bus,…
