I finally completed the solution. I purchased a Pioneer 5700 radio/cd/dvd/sat radio/with ipod connection and had it installed. It also has an input for a backup camera, which I did not need as I already have a backup camera. I have a 9 inch tablet that I have loaded Delorme SW on and will use this for my GPS. Cost me $550 for the work, life is good.
Having had my Pioneer repaired, it is worth it. The factory repaired mine for less than $300. A comparable replacement is over $600 and will require reinstallation and wiring. Not just plugging back in.
1. Have you tried hitting the reset button on the front display? That is the very small indent you use a ball point pin to push and hold for 10 seconds. 2. Your system is 10 years old, and not worth repairing. You can get a replacement for a lot less than repair and it will have all the current modern features that are standard today. The only problem may be the flip up design. Doug
In days of old when folks were bold and I was studying Electronics, PIONEER was one of the big boys.
