NEW HEAD UNIT NEEDED

[AYRGUNN]

Hi all, just looking for some advice.

I have a 2018 t6 Edition and the head unit has given up the ghost.

Can anyone recommend a good replacement that will still work with reversing cameras
front and rear sensors etc. Also have apple car play.

Can anyone also recommend a company that would be able to do the work.

thanks for reading Iain

When you say given up the ghost, what do you mean? Touch screen problems are very common with this unit and are a relatively easy DIY repair.

The head unit is stuck in radio mode and touchscreen has lost all sensitivity.

Best to DM @Absolut5 - he will sort you out. Really knows his stuff, just did the head unit upgrade on our van. Can’t fault it

Aftermarket unit so yeah the digitiser isnt really an option here. Your best bet is to try and find the model in the menu and if that isn't possible remove the trim from the passenger side and the vents then unscrew to see if there's a sticker on the unit. Replace like for like which is real easy DIY.

Does it come up with a make/model of head unit when you first turn it on?

Maybe this?

Looks pretty similar but can't be 100%
Maybe have a look at the one I've linked and see if the connections on the back are similar.

Thanks pal, well worth a punt. All connections, resistances and earths are the same, - was quoted today 870 pounds for a new pioneer fitted. Im not much of a techy just want the basics to work.
