PajeroSport Electrical issue

Mon Jun 06, 2022 4:33 pm

Hi
My 2016 PS has an intermittent problem.

Every now and then the dash radio goes dead and then appears to reboot.

It occurs sometimes after hitting a bump, using the indicators or using the AC.

It is difficult to replicate but clearly something it causing some short or earth type issue.

Any suggestions

I would check that the unit is fitted correctly in that the mounting screws are tight. Many of these systems are earthed (Negative) via their casings to the chassis of the vehicle. If a bit loose you could get this happening. The curved ball is that you say it happens when you turn on the indicator or the air con , as these should not effect the radio. Also just check the plugs to the radio are all seated correctly.
