Right I thought I’d sorted this problem. Basically when the screen retracts into the dash it seems to blow a fuse every now and then but it’s happening more often now.
its also started blowing the fuse without the screen unit plugged in. As soon as the fuse touches the terminals it sparks and blows. In my own mind this is a short however I’m useless with electrics. I’ve striped the look at the back of the head unit as far as I can get. Probably 40cm and there’s no breaks in the wiring.
My question is if I run a wire off the back of the fuse to the thin 2 wire plug on the back of the unit will this rule out the wiring? I have to say I’m a bit stumped. Does the wire go straight from the back of the fuse to the screen? Or is there some other unit somewhere? And if so where?
