Argh darn headunit!

my headunit just went down the drain...there goes 3 bills...i dunno what's wrong with it, nor does the installer i took it to to get it checked...he said that it may just be a manu. defect...do i'm going to call up pioneer and see what they have to say about it ..but damn it i drove for like 3 days without music in mycar and i was going nuts...finally got my stock unit back in today.

oh yea, if it doesn't work out with pioneer, anyone got a nice HU for sale?

You have the 8400MP or 840MP right?

Two of my friends had problems with those units. Jammed screens (won't slide down) and sudden deaths.

I think they went to AL&ED's or something like that and got them replaced. They didn't buy them from that store, but the store sent them to Pioneer for repairs. All you have to pay is like $15 to cover shipping. Takes about 4-6 weeks to get them back!

Good luck

Ok, thanks for the info...I'll go check that out today

I'm still not sure what exactly happened. It was working the night before and then the next day, it just crapped out. I mean, the flap would still open but the screens and buttons were dead.

Can't afford a LCD player right now....perhaps in the future...
