"ID Error" on stock Radio

[Jordo]

Hi everyone,

It's been a while since I've been on. Busy with work, but also doing some minor stuff to the Patrol. I recently had the battery disconnected to do something, and now the radio is playing up a little.

It shows "ID Error" on startup for about 3 - 5 seconds, and then that message goes away, but the display keeps flashing continually. Everything still works without problems, but the flashing display is really annoying.

I disconnected the battery and reconnected it several times (once for an hour) but still the same problem. Auto electricians and Nissan don't have any idea, and I can't find anything on the web. Any help would be appreciated.

And idea of the brand model number?

No idea yet unfortunately. I've looked in the manual and don't know what brand, but I will see if I can find the model number tonight and get back to you about it.

Could it be that the ID security code which you put in was wrong??

Hi guys,

Thanks for your input. I have spoken with a number of Nissan dealers and got Garry from Nizzbits to help me out (He has been fantastic), but no one knows anything about it. I was contemplating about a new headunit anyway, but I guess it's probably more of a priority now... It sucks as the car is only 3 years old this month and the radio is good, but I will get a custom unit in it I reckon.

Thanks again for your help.
