Hi all,
(DIY user here)
Wondering if somebody might know anything about why my Sony XAV-AX1000 won't power up on startup.
A little bit of info about the situation:
I purchased this car from a private seller last weekend, who provided photos on the listing of the screen working on the date of 27/08/22 so I know that this isn't a faulty head unit itself. The head unit itself was installed by a professional (I believe Halfords fitted it for the previous owner). However, since I've had the car I have not been able to get the head unit to power on. When I turn on the engine there is no sign of any power on the head unit when holding down the home button etc.
I have tried replacing both fuses for the unit itself and the corresponding fuse in the passenger side fuse box but still getting nothing. I was wondering if there is anything else I can try before having to take it to someone to take a look at as this is something that could have only gone wrong in the last week or so. It's also worth mentioning that the head unit itself doesn't have a power button.
Any help or suggestions for this would be greatly appreciated & thanks in advance!

- TL;DR
- Aftermarket Sony XAV-AX1000 won't power up when the engine is turned on (has no power button), tried replacing fuses, and still no luck.
