I have a Eonon - EO859 that came with my GTT, but it randomly drops radio and "seeks". I have taken it out and checked the aerial but all looked fine. Not sure what else to check anyone help me out.

Here is a link to the unit - http://rsonlineshop.com.my/Spec/New/859.htm

most of the time its going to happen with any radio, multipath is a huge problem with "Nissan diversity antennas" they suck ass on a good day

before blaming the radio I would look at the antenna connection, most are hacked up when they bring them into OZ. to put on freq.converters. and without a good ground plane refuse to get a decent signal. or they might just have a loose jack ? setup on local or distance switch ????

you can get a stick on grid antenna similar to the rear defroster grid for a replacement or go old school and get a EVO,BMW,MERC roof mount instead ?

Hey troy thanks for the reply. The antenna on the back on the unit looks very clean and untouched. Im not quite sure what else to look at / for.

most likely the antenna in the rear de- mister area then or mutipath from nissan diversity antenna idea (worthless) in adelaide, if your unit has a local distance button put it on local in town?

where in town does it happen? expressway ,airport, cbd ?????

Randomly everywhere, usually around overhead wires etc

if you have access to a old school type antenna (metal rod type) to test it with, like old ford one, plug it in and prop it up in the seat I can just about bet the one in the rear window is stuffed, most suck

even a newish mitsu VRX I drive around sometimes with a top of the line factory radio, and roof antenna does that same thing , around Adelaide. my old top of the line Pioneer did it in the R34 as well. but found the wires hacked from importer and rear ones disconnected off GPS unit in rear pillar.

don't throw the radio out yet, the antenna needs a ground plane to work right. what part of town do you live in down south ? might try amplified hidden model instead ?? or if your around one night at villi's look at it for you?

Hey troy, live west ish (Flinders Park) I maybe able to make it to villies this Friday depending on my missus going to a party. Be awesome if you could look at it.

I don't have a spare antenna anywhere either unfortunately. When i start the car im not sure but it sounds like an aerial extending but that could be a completely different component ;)

the noise you hear is the ABS brakes running a test on the line pressure when you first drive off. 10-15 seconds after moving forward. on the GTT

I have a cheap upgrade antenna for Digital tv. lol works a treat but needs some fiddling to get it sorted.

thanks for the buttons to push for local/ distance

due to prior commitments I have been volunteered to go out to eat friday , so villi's is out mate. sorry.

I live 15 min from noarlunga , in the dirty south...lol

ok well the second thing to check (common problem ) is that they havend uses a metal bast tint on your rear window as this will affect your reception , also the adapter plug used to run an aftermarket radio tend to fall apart once pluged and unpluged a few times .

good luck .

also most eonon's are utter crap theres only 1 modle i have found to get worth its money !! the first and second ones i had were shit and the third was great !! the last one i just got for the wife is newer but alot harder to navigate the menues and settings but works fine

they do have support if you bought from one of the bigger sellers , and MSN to discuss any issues live.

had one that had out of date test maps, they FTP'd me the new version , no drama's

the plug above causes most problems or hacked installs

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Did you panel beat the dents or have you tried to repair this only using filler?  Is your sanding block soft/flexible and is following the shape of the panel rather then just knocking down the high points?

      I haven't knocked them down yet. I think I made the repair more complex than it should have been. I had rock chips combined with waviness and dents and I tackled it all in one because it was near each other and just end up wasting a bunch of bog lol. I'll knock down those areas and see how I go. And yep what you are saying at the end is correct. I think I might be sanding the top of a steep hill then my sanding block falls into the dent and gets rid of the guidecoat if that makes sense. Though shouldnt unless I'm covering too big of an area with not a long enough block. I'll try something new and provide some updates. Getting there though! Thanks as always.

      Yeah makes sense, hard to comment on your situation without seeing what your doing. I was talking generally before, I would not be looking to randomly create low spots with a hammer to then have to fill them.  It's hard without seeing what your doing, it sounds like you are using the guide coat to identify low spots, as you're saying the panel is still wavy. I don't see how you're not ending up with patches of guide coat remaining in a wavy panel? Once the high spots are knocked down to the correct level, surely to have a wavy panel you need low spots. And those low spots would have guide coat still in them?

      So I'll put filler past the repair area a bit to make sure I don't miss anything. Then I'll block it until it's almost level, put the guidecoat, then keep blocking until it's gone. Then it's still wavy.  In regards to hitting the panel, I saw this video might give more context - Skip to 0:47 he knocks it down. But yeah I'm sanding until the guidecoat is gone then checking because otherwise my filler is still well above the bodyline. Unless what you're saying is I should put guidecoat around it early, surrounding the filler then stip once it's gone?

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I refreshed the OEM injectors with the kit and connected it up. It now ideals okay even with the IACV removed. Driving still has the same cutoff issue like the 550cc injectors so the issue is somewhere else. I bought FPG's Fuel Pump Hanger. I will be installing it next, but it is not as straightforward as I thought it was with my limited wiring knowledge and no instruction on the specific model I purchased (FPG-089). I also got the incorrect billet clamp as I could not find info on the OEM sizing.
