Put in an updated NAV DVD and my REC radio in my 2005 Dodge Magnum, did a software update, then did it again, and again.
After the 3rd try the radio went to a black screen, not even the backlight.
There is no display at all now. The radio will load a cd, and play it from the first track onwards, but I have no control over it other than volume. I can not change between cd and AM or FM.
All of the buttons along the bottom are unresponsive, I can not go into NAV mode and there is no display at all.
Does anyone know how to reset this radio so it will re-load the software from my old DVD?
I have tried removing the radio from the car for a couple of hours, but still no go.
There is no visible emrom chip or battery on the board, and no visible reset button.
I know this radio is made by Alpine if that helps any.
Chrysler part number P56038646AL
I added this to the car after I purchased it so there would be no warranty on it, got it off of EBay.
Worked for over a year, just stopped when the update disc, which I believe is damaged or data corrupted was put in.
