Hi.
My car radio does not turn on. Unable to follow buried traces, or broken trace somewhere. And very complex to dismantle to look for the interruption behind multiple connectors soldered to a printed circuit board; high risk of damaging something else.
It has the typical +12V BAT (permanent feed) and the +12V ACC feed (when key in the ignition enables).
Both supply lines are fine in the car and enter the rear connector. It is the radio that does not turn on.
Trying a long shot-another way: Which IC typically in any japanese car radio built in 2000 would handle the turn-on ? Its data sheet could help finding such IC on the board.
The push-on / push off switch is a single momentary tact switch confirmed good.
It would mean looking at a few car radios schematics of the era to see how where designed then.
Or; what IC's do you know that handle 'power-on' for car radios ; how to do a search, using what terms ?
If anyone has magic powers for schematics, it is an Alpine XQD101390LNF
