My Eclipse won't turn

[Rev Jules]

Went to use the Eclipse and it failed to burst into life, what should I be looking for fuse wise.

Cheers.

Will anybody know what might be wrong, even you Coolcat.

Reverend,

You are addressing mere mortals now. We do not have the divine powers to know which engine you have, and we cannot begin to assist without that basic information.

Rev, start by checking your cig lighter works, if not check fuse 11 in fuse box under glovebox, (if my memory serves me well).

Check fuse at rear of headunit, check wiring etc.

You could start by trying a 'Reset' is there a small reset button at front of unit (lower right).

If all fails, then request a refund.

My dearest Simon it's not the engine I am concerned with it's the new Eclipse radio that's bugging me,
My engine is a 2.5 automatic.

Evening Julien,

I would suggest the first thing to check is that the loom at the back of the head unit or where it connects to the car loom hasn't become loose or disconnected .

If you switch the lights on in the car are the backlit buttons in the radio illuminating ?

If they are you can use a papeclip or similar and press the recessed reset button and see if that brings it back to life.

Let us know how you get on.

Ah, a radio. I fell for your riddle hook line and sinker didn't I?

I must pay more attention to the forum sections.
