Hugo,


In reply to:

Your unit appears to be getting reverse polarity supply somehow, as a buffer chip is getting blown up. This is definitely what happened the time before, as I can see I've changed the chip in question at least once before now.

Are you ever powering the unit from the car connector with a power jack in the home connector or anything else strange?




Er, no. I've got a home power supply next to the computer for use when I'm loading songs, and I've got the sled in the car, nothing else.

Could it be the power connector or an issue with the car install?

Paul.
