friends mom has a ford focus with the blaupunkt head unit factory, when you turn the head unit on, it turns on for half a second, then off, then on for half a second, then off over and over and over. then when you push the poewr button to turn it off, it only works like 1/4 of the time, and it stays on cuz those fords can leave the head unit on without the key for like an hour or some crap like that. i dunno, im thinkin its pretty screwed but just seein if anyone had any ideas.

ive isolated your problem

 

lol

 

Sounds like there is a short in the system, like the radio is going into protection. Is there any added components or is the whole system factory? What year is the car? Maybe a wire is shorting to ground or to each other.

 

its a 2003, everythings factory. Yea i think its just the blaupunkt factory head unit like jesse said.

she called ford and talked to some bitch who goes: u have to bring the car here for us to look at it and tell you whether its under warranty, theres an $80 charge to look at it

I called: yeah as long as the car is under the 36,000 mile warranty, which is bumper to bumper, and nobody has tampered or damaged it, its covered 100%.

Great customer service job Freedom Ford

 

Take it to Ford, let them deal with it. There's no reason that shouldn't be covered.

 

and ask for the old one back so you can piss on it

 

^^ what he said!

 

I agree...... The brand of the player worries me....
