How to fix a Power Acoustik PCD-42B Car Receiver that won't turn on?
If your Power Acoustik Car Receiver isn't turning on and no sound is produced, the fuse might be blown. Replace it with a fuse that has the same amperage rating. If it blows again, it's best to consult your local retailer. Also, incorrect wiring could be the cause, so it's recommended to consult with your local retailer.
What to do if my Power Acoustik Car Receiver has no sound?
If there's no sound from your Power Acoustik Car Receiver or its external amplifier, here are a few things to check: 1. Make sure the amplifier output wiring is correctly connected according to the unit wiring diagram, and that there are no short circuits. 2. Ensure the unit is not in MUTE mode by turning off the MUTE function. 3. Verify that the RCA output is correctly connected to the external amplifier. 4. Check the wiring between the external amplifier’s REM terminal and the unit’s antenna lead, ensuring they are properly connected and that the antenna output lead is not short-circuited to ground.
Why does my Power Acoustik PCD-42B Car Receiver freeze or display inaccurately?
If nothing happens when you press the buttons on your Power Acoustik Car Receiver, or if the display is not accurate, it could be due to a microprocessor malfunction caused by noise. To resolve this, turn off the power, then press the [NO OPEN] button and remove the DCP. After that, press the reset button for about 2 seconds. Another possible cause is dirty panel or main unit connectors. Try wiping the dirt off with a soft cloth moistened with cleaning alcohol.
