I have read that this is the stock head unit from the newer *fancy* Lincoln LS --- not sure exactly what year though...
I bought one from a pawn shop in town, guy tested it with a car battery in the shop, showed me it was working... thing was fine.
Brought it home, wanted to tinker a bit with to see how the interface worked more etc... so I hooked it up to a 12v powersupply (one of those ac -> dc adapters)
I soon realized that wasn't going to work since the psu I was using was only 3amps :/ The buttons backlighting "flickered" on a couple times but I wasn't getting anywhere... I ended up just plugging it in to the car... Long story short I found out that the main plug/harnes for it was "hot glued" together...
I bought a new one through this guy in Michigan who is apparently re-branding the vnmc-1000 ... http://www.insonos.com/
Hooked the new one up last night... doesn't do a thing- tested the 12 volts all the way through the power plug/harness that goes directly into the unit... it was good- fuses all good even the one on the unit. Giving 12 volts to the 12+ and ignition lines... and a solid ground to the ground line...
It does nothing... doesn't even light up the buttons on the face.
I assume these units have some sort of internal power supply/adapter/inverter/flux capacitor - is it likely that could be replaced? Maybe an internal fuse?
Any suggestions would be appreciated... just worried I've waisted upwards of 300 on this thing...
Does look bad-ass , 5.1 surround, gps, the whole 9 yards really... i figured for 250 i couldn't go wrong
