Radio/Aircon problem....

[Majoco]

Hi guys,

I bought my Japanese import Outback with a replacement radio fitted as the Japanese FM band only goes from 76 to 86Mhz or thereabouts. The shop that did the replacing fitted a ghastly Sony thing that lights up like Blackpool Illuminations. I found an original radio on our local auction web site that looked the real thing and took about an hour to fit. A 'band expander' will be fitted if I can solve this problem. Unfortunately the steering wheel buttons still don't work but the radio works well and the 6CD player - and a minidisc player too, except I don't have any! The main problem is that the aircon/heater controls all work but the display is dead. All the plugs are fitted except one that only has three wires to it - the plug that fits the old controller is fitted to the new radio but the separate box is not transferable. Any help gratefully received.

Pix. Suby 1 - the radio on the aucton site.

Suby 2 - The radio and controller fitted on purchase

Suby 3 - the auction radio fitted in the car.

Cheers - Martin
