old clarion stereo malfunctioning

Post by MRVAPER1 »

the H3 we bought had an old clarion NZ500 stereo installed. unfortunately there arent a lot of dealers around here to service it. when the pop up screen comes out it is dark. so.... we're looking at replacing it. does the OEM stereo come with a gps screen? if so, where can we buy/get one? OR if anyone knows how to fix the panel on the clarion screen that would help too. it has a function where you can turn the monitor off.  i guess so it's not too bright at night apparently simply touching the screen SHOULD make it come back on but to no avail

There's an audio place near your work place in Newmarket, on Pony drive. They might be able to help. But it sounds like it might be time to replace it.



I would go with a stock one though, maps will be outdated and costly to update, likely won't have traffic either. Just a thought.

I’ve got a 10 year old Clarion with a pop out screen as well. Updates are a pain and the thing is getting ripped out and updated soon.

Agree with Wideload... these things are not expensive anymore and the new ones are so much better in general.
