#1: Head unit switching on! Author: Gti180Mac, Location: ScotlandPosted: Thu Nov 17, 2011 9:41 am ---- Hi, I've recently just bought a GTi 180, and the previous owner has replaced the original stereo with a dvd head unit. The problem is, whenever I open any of the doors, the head unit switches on. Then if I dont switch it off, after a coulple of times the head unit loses all of its settings. I made sure the unit was properly wired, and the permanent live and ignition live are all correct.
Any idea's anybody?
Thanks in advance

GTI 180 is multiplexed, I get the feeling the radio has been mistakenly wired to the VAN wire in the ISO plug
The radio wiring info is in the back of the owners manual & its also in the ICE section FAQ on this forum.
Double check the wiring after reading the diagram in the manual / ICE FAQ section.
