Brilliant, but how did you repair it is what we all need to know ?

Thank you for the post. I would like to know how you rigged up the power to the unit though. What voltage and where to get a "socket" for the plug?

Very interesting video. Do you know what the pin outs are on the 8 pin DIN plug on an Alpine CHM S630 Thanks.

On my 2004 range rover hse the number 5 slot is stuck half way in between the cd cassette and the other side where the cd should go to play music. How can I fix that problem?
