Radio,Bluetooth and GPS are the main functions the car DVD navigation have.In general,the radio function has met the most quantity issues.So I will put the original customer’s problem in this page to solve most people ‘s doubt.

The customer:I received my order. I took the unit to Streetnoyz here in San Diego. They are a long time quality installer and could not resolve the following problems.

1. Constant noise through speakers when headlights are turned on.

2. Engine noise coming through speakers when car is running.

3. Limited steering wheel controls – Only thumb wheels work.

  1. i have recently installed my SEICENE Multimedia system for my VW Jetta 5 1.4 TSI, works great except FM tuning. i sometimes poorly tune in to some other stations, but sometimes works fine. the other problem that i have experienced is the battery issue. the radio does not go off after turning the ignition off on my car, and i use the on and off button to switch it. but sometimes it drains my battery so bad even though i turned if off. so i wanted to ask is there a proper way to correct that, or should i visit the local radio installer?

  2. I recently installed SEICANE Android Player in to my 2012 Subaru Outback. The unit works well and I like it a lot. However I then realize when night driving, turn on headlights, the Android Player go crazy and software hang. Volume go maximum and there is no way to stop it but go for rest button, or turn of car for a few minutes before turn on. Happens every time I turn on headlight. Please help?

  4. My 2002 Honda CR-V head unit works well but there are NO POIs loaded in the machine. It cannot find gas station or banks or theaters or anything. This is how the system was delivered. In good English tell me how to load poi’s or I must return this unit.
