cd player with no display so replacement???

[martin.page23]

Hello, i have noticed in my terrane 2 that the lcd display on the original radio is dead. i did find a cd changer under driver seat today so keen to replace with a i guess the same nissan cassette with cd changer controls unless other radios will work. any idea or advice. sorry for questions but only picked up last week and this week was the first time i got to have a look in day light!!

thanks

Common problem, you may fined the display comes back in warmer whether, mine dose, but plenty on here have changed there's and there are several threads on this. The only problem is the hazard switch, but this is quite easy to sort again there are threads on this.john

There is a problem with trying to stick with the Nissan radio, unless you get your one repaired...

Basically, the first time they are switched on, they do a Serial number sync with the ECU, and from then on, will only work with that ECU, so if you buy a second hand one it will not work once fitted to the wrong ECU

If you look on the back of the radio, you may find it is made by Clarion or Blaupunkt, so may find one of their radios would still work with the built in multi-changer.

Also depends upon the year of vehicle, around 2001 they came complete with the hazard switch. Mines a R reg with the same problem, that one doesn't talk to ECU but they've all pretty much gone at that age.

So is it facelift models that sync with ecu or just a certain registration date? :nenau

Good info btw

Yes, mine is a 99, and it also had Coded on the front, but never asked for it. When I read the workshop manual, it explains how the coded Clarion ones were converted for Nissan, and changed to use the ECU. Apparently, you can send them to a Clarion dealer to get them reset, but they charge, and would want proof of purchase.
