Becker Grand Prix

[rs2315]

Head unit off, but on
Just had my becker installed.
Went away very happy from fitters.
Car left in garage for a few days after, came to open door, central locking not working.
Very flat battery
First thought new head unit, take a look after charging battery.
Turns out even after turning off system, there is still power going to unit lighting up on off switch and locator lights for disc.
Back to fitters, say's he's never seen that before.
Suggests I check manual for any info on the above.
If no look, say's he can wire it up to ignition, so it will come on or off when keys are in or out.
Any thoughts chaps.
Haven't yet had chance to look at manual.
Cheers.

sounds like your dash illumination wire from the head unit has been wired into a perm 12v rather than a 'lights on' 12v.
The lights you see are what you should see when the head unit is off but the headlights are on.

Becker has a cont/permanent+}
and sw/contact +} in there pins
if you use a din connector you have to change/ this.

Cheers boy's, I'll go with the 2nd idea, sounds right.
Dj Roy, I'll take your description to my fitter, and see what he makes of it.
If it all goes wrong I'll just blame the Dj from Amsterdam.
