Questions and answers
My radio wont turn on when I turn my car on however I used it like 3 weeks ago perfectly fine
The Alpine CDE-124SXM radio may not turn on when the car is started due to the following reasons:
- Incorrect connections of the power wire (Red) and battery wire (Yellow). Check and correct the wiring.
- A blown fuse. Inspect the fuse and replace it with the correct type if needed.
- A malfunction in the internal microprocessor caused by noise or interference. Press the RESET switch using a ballpoint pen or pointed object.
