Question

I have a Sony CDX-5070 unit fitted in my car - It's one of the old green numbers only type disply. No RDS or anything fancy...

The display is fading/ failing, some bits seem to be illuminating when they shouldn't be etc. Is there any cure for this?

Cheers

Mick

if it's a face-off one, try cleaning all the contacts with some "rubbing alcohol".

If its a face off you could try to find another matching face??
