Xtrons permanent live issue

Riskoe · 11-08-2018, 02:55 PM

Evening guys, I wonder if anyone can clear up an issue I have with a newly installed XTRONS headunit.

I have everything installed however the unit is still having trouble remembering settings and radio stations.

I originally didn't have the permanent live connected to the battery so the radio wouldn't remember anything. I have now added the permanent live however XTRONS customer service advise I need to cut the yellow wire on the back of the unit so that the radio doesn't have both a permanent live from the battery and the car? I am unsure as to their instructions if Im honest.

I now have the wire running to the battery and the headunit appears to remember settings and then forget them all over again.

Absolutely no idea what to do with this one. Any ideas people?

This is a long shot, but if you still have this issue, it worked on my Eonon hed unit, and I'm told all the androids are pretty much the same.

First you need to find the factry settings, on mine it's located in the car settings. Then:

Settings
scroll down to factory settings
password:126 (might be different for you)
default power status; memory of last status
apply
exit
yes to reboot

Good luck
