Need to factory reset panasonic car radio CQ-DFX783N

    Thank you Anthony- tried that but it just clears your own settings- does not reset to factory default

    I apologize.. the reset info is actually shown as page 4 and 5 when the manual is downloaded?

    Another try is: Car OFF, radio OFF, now pull the RADIO FUSE!

    Leave the car OFF, but turn the RADIO ON and leave it on... Now wait about 10 min. and hopefully this process will 'drain' electrolytic capacitors of voltage that may be used to retain station memory/stations?

    CAR LIGHTS also supply switched (RADIO) voltage to power the lights on the radio panel/face, but I doubt if they are part of the problem of your 'memory retention' here>?

    Thanks Anthony. Do not want to clear just my own added settings- want to reset to factory default and there is no reset button or combination of other buttons to press that works.

    Joe, if this is a 'factory installed' or 'dealer installed' radio they should be able to help!

On page 5 you will find this:

"Note:
The preset memory is cleared to return to the
original factory setting when the battery is disconnected"..

Expect to reset your car clock too!

How do i find the sirius id on the panasonic cq-hr1003u?

The radio does not have a Sirius ID - it is not built in. THe CQ-HR1003u is Sirius READY - meaning... The CQ-HR1003U can control an optional Sirius Satellite Radio tuner by Panasonic (item #133SRT100).

In addition to the Sirius tuner, you will need an antenna and subscription in order to receive Sirius Satellite Radio programming.

Thanks!

Panasonic CQ-C700U

Sorry, there's no way to repair the CD, if faulty. Try looking for a "reset" a VERY tiny hole somewhere behind the "door", on the face of the radio chassis...Using a paper clip end push into the tiny hole for a few seconds, ignition/radio on...If you can't find a reset...take it to a friendly local car stereo shop and ask them to diagnose the problem ($40).
Good Luck
