Title: Sounds System Help
Post by: Dragon on 17 February 2008, 03:57:17

I have a 2001 Elite fitted with a Bose sound system and the fascia unit is radio/cassette/4 disc CD cartridge. (Can't remember the model number, 2008/2009 maybe?)

I have a problem with the on-off/volume/balance. I've spoken to the main Vauxhall dealer and a couple of local ICE companies but can't find anyone prepared to look at/repair the unit. Vauxhall no longer offer service or a replacement unit as it's obsolete. ICE dealers say it's virtually impossible to interface a 3rd party unit with the Bose system.

Any ideas please of companies/individuals offering a repair service on this unit?

Regards,

Big D.

I dont know how different the Bose setup is in the facelift, but I didn't have any problems with my elite with an aftermarket headunit.

I just plugged it in, and it worked, Didn't use any adaptors or anything?

Have you looked in the ICE and Electrical Section of the Forum mate? maybe someone has had a similar problem, which would be posted there :y

Whats the problem with it?, if its a HU swap out you could always pick up a Standard one (non Bose) on eBay, then get TB to tech it into Bose mode.

(or buy a new one I thought all Dragons where Rich?)
