Alpine CDA-9805 head unit - frequency hops

When head unit is turned on...everything works fine for a bit, then the frequency hops around. Example (Tuned to 106.5 FM, then all of sudden frequency hops around, but still displays 106.5) After a short bit the original signal comes back on. I've check the antenna and its good.

Sure could use some advise.

Make sure no switches are jammed on radio or radio face.Liquid spillage and or intermittent switches on tunning section can also cause this.

What's your problemI bought a used car that has an alpine cda 9805 radio. It has an auxillary cable that appears can hook up to my I pod nano. I can't find the function/ mode on the radio to g

The source/power button in the top left corner changes the mode. Press the button until the aux appears. The auxillary device must be plugged in to register on the stereo.

Hi there,
If this model has a detachable faceplate,
Remove the faceplate and clean down the contacts with metho and a cotton bud.
Over time usually corrosion and dirt etc builds up on these terminals making them loose cotact when you touch the faceplate.
This is the most commonly known problem alpine units.
Other common problems is the power supply failing /amplifier.
Hope this helps you out
Cheers
Steve

No sound from my 9855 alpine

There is an option in the unit itself to turn off the internal amplifier. If you push the 'menu' button, then go to the setup/settings menu, and then i believe it was under the 'general settings' tab. there's a option called INT IC or something. Make sure that is turned on.

Yes, I'm sure Alpine will sell you another face but there is still the option of repairing the broken face at a good repair shop. Of course getting a new face is the easiest (read most expensive) way to get you going again.
