About five years ago, I bought a replacement Delco radio/CD player/EQ from Kirban to replace my original radio/cassette player/EQ in my CS2 system ('87 GN). I didn't get around to installing it until about a year later. I couldn't get it to work, so I put it aside. Four years later, I'm back to messing with it.
The unit's serial number is 16170214. Kirban provided a plug adapter with the radio. I checked all the wires on the adapter end-to-end and all of them are good.
Pressing the power button has no effect. The only time I can get the display to show anything is by pressing RECALL, and that gives the time for a few seconds. I can insert a CD, and it grabs it and pulls it in correctly. It will also eject the CD correctly. If I turn on my parking lights, I can see an orange illumination inside the unit, and the RECALL display is dimmer. The heat sinks get a little warm.
Other than the above...nothing. No sound, no static, no radio station display. CD transport keys don't do anything. It's acting as if the POWER button isn't turning it on. Pressing the POWER button doesn't bring up the power antenna either.
Everything works correctly with the original unit (before and after trying the replacement unit).
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ira
