Title: Stereo flickering on/off
Post by: radovr6 on December 23, 2015, 04:45:10 pm

Hi

Has anybody had this issue before?

Its an aftermarket unit with a can-bus adaptor which has been fine for years.

Recently it started flickering on/off. Sometimes badly sometimes not much.

I took the key out the ignition the other day and the stereo stayed on. Also if the stereo goes off you can sometimes get it back on by wiggling the key a bit in the ignition.

Please help its driving me mad.

Thanks

Possible faulty ignition barrel if your not turning the key but just wiggling it in the barrel?.
