    Default New H/U no power :(

    Hi
    I just bought an Xtrons TD717 and i'm having a few problems installing it. I have full can-bus and i bought the quadlock to iso adapter but am getting no power from the unit. I've tried swapping permanent and ignition live feeds but have had no luck at all.. what am i missing??

    Have you tried taken a feed from Cig lighter M8 there is a plug on the back of it once you strip it down thats where i have taken mine from as VX headunits run on 4v and you need a 12v for most aftermarket headunits.
