RT6 unit not working at all

[SlimJim]

Amazing.

I’ll do my best and hope it works first time. Would be a result

I’d imagine I’d have to also pay for the maps to be reinstalled ?

Thanks

The dealer won't do these for you.

The official map source for Peugeot is here:

Contact me by PM once you have your RT6 unit working properly.

Hi

I just received the CV, but unfortunately it’s still not working.

Would you recommend to send it to the chap in Spain ?

Thanks

So you inserted the CD and what happened? Any messages? What is the screen saying?

[SlimJim]

Nothing. The screen was blank and the CD was eaten up by the unit. Disappointing really, because I thought we were there.

Display didn’t show anything, not even the logo

[GiveMeABreak]

So did you leave it running with the engine running for long enough? These things can take a while to start up and read the content before doing anything. Are you getting anything in the display like the radio or reversing sensors?

[SlimJim]

Yes, car was running for 20 minutes

Nothing is working.. sound etc

[SlimJim]

Plus the first time it rejected the CD

[GiveMeABreak]

You didn't mention anything about the display - are you getting anything on the multi function display like the Radio function - or is the Bluetooth connection to the phone working / reversing sensors or is the screen black? It's hard to determine from your responses what is and what isn't working - I can't see anything remember. If the MF Display us faulty, then any messages that are being sent you won't see - as in the case of the firmware CD - it may be saying 'System update present' and asking if you want to install it - but if the display isn't working you won't see the message and possibly it may be ejecting the CD.

So no point in sending the unit of if the display is faulty if that makes sense.

[SlimJim]

So there is no sound from the reverse parking or radio. I couldn’t see anything before, but the test show it’s the RT6 unit that’s the problem not the display itself. I can take a picture of it helps?

[GiveMeABreak]

Well if you are confident it is the Head Unit, you may have to consider sending it off for repair. If the unit itself (apart from the micro SD card) is faulty, then there is something else going on - you nay have a graphic chip issue that is causing the screen display issues or something else on the motherboard. May be worth contacting Karim for a quote.

[SlimJim]

Ok cool. I’ll keep you update.

QQ if it was the display itself that’s faulty, would I still have sound ?

[GiveMeABreak]

As far as I am aware yes, as the configuration of the options is with the Head Unit and not with the Display as it was on older systems, where the display had the controlling ECU and that controlled the Head Unit like on the RD4 systems.

[SlimJim]

I managed to find a service on EbY for £319 to fix the radio and the chap seems quite confident that a new one is not required.

Any thoughts ? I’ve not been able to get in touch with Karim so looking at options

Thanks
