i fitted some door speakers and everythink was fine. until the autolead cables were hanging below the dash board so i moved them up and heard the speakers pop. i have a ripspeed dvd player and now when i turn it on the screen just stays grey and has no function, but the speakers still work. also checked the fuse in the back of the head unit and this was fine.

anyone know what i can do/try to fix it

have you put the two which disconnected back in the right way what colour wires came out?

sounds like it could be hand brake cable has came loose

it was the yelow and red wires witch disconected. i never had the hand breake wire wired up and it was working(may have been resting on some metal to earth it). so that may be the problem. does it just need to be earth so the handbreak or sumthink else

u sure the wires that come out went back in as thay where befor or did you just take a guess and think red2red yellow2yellow? is the headunit still savin the settings after you turn the ignition on and off?

i normal wire the hand brake wire into the earth wire on the headunit wiring

im 80% sure the yellow was to the yellow and the red to the red so thats how i reconnected them, those wires are the onces that are on the autowires section.

and when i turn the ignition on the head unit comes on(the lights and grey screen) but it has no function.

is it possible to fry the mother board in the head unit?
