Re: Hello and thank you!

Try sanding down the 25 amp fuse in the trunk, I did that last week to my 9C1 and my radio and HVAC came back. I was very surprised that was the only problem. worth a shot.

Re: New Shopper - Any Experience with the dealers listed in the Classified?

What are the chances..... the fuse really did not look that bad. That for all of your help guys, appreciate it. Nick ...

Re: Radio dead

Hey Eric,
Thanks for all of the useful info, I am going to try all of this and see what happens, I have driven the car about ten times since I posted and the screen is black and still have no controls. I appreciate your help with the info. I did pull all of the fuses and everything was okay.

Re: Lifter failure cylinder 1

I will be damned if the lifter tray did not fail on the other side. The lifter tray spot in question was actually a regular lifter. I decided to replace everything on that side and boom she is back on the road. Everything else is tip top for my 500,000 mile car, lmao. I do have a harmonic balancer w...
