Repair of Mitsubishi radio, navigation and amplifiers

We repair factory radios, navigation units and amplifiers fitted in Mitsubishi vehicles. Our database for this make includes the Rockford Fosgate 8701A474 amplifier from the Lancer X (CY / CZ) and Outlander III (GF / GG). The removed module is sent to the workshop, not the car.

How to tell the problem is in the module

Cars with the 8701A474 amplifier come to us with no sound or a draining battery; water ingress into the amplifier is often the cause. If the screen and radio buttons work but there is no sound, the problem may be in the amplifier or audio path, not in the radio. In your enquiry, describe:

• whether the symptom occurs immediately after start-up or appears intermittently,
• whether it affects all sound sources and all speakers,
• whether the radio screen and buttons work properly.

A black screen and no response from the radio or navigation may indicate a power supply issue or damage to the module itself. Checking the removed unit will determine this; if it turns out to be working, the car’s wiring should be checked by a local mechanic or auto electrician.

What the case for repair depends on

The type of damage, the condition of the electronics and the availability of parts for the given part number are decisive. When corrosion or mechanical damage covers a large part of the board, repair may not be cost-effective. Based on photos and your description, we give an initial quote before shipment, and confirm the scope of work and cost after the module has been checked.

Factory module, not a replacement

We repair only original modules with the manufacturer’s label and part number. We do not accept Android replacements or other non-original units. The original module is designed to work with the factory panel, steering wheel controls and amplifier; a replacement may not provide such compatibility.
