mk4 Gamma CD stuck!

Cool thanks, so its actually on the multi pin plug.  I had thought it was the 2 pin one.  Will give it a whirl thanks.  I'd not seen that thread before; good stuff.

Not having any luck.  I have plugged in an ISO adapter and applied 12V+ to permanent live no 1 (pin 7 red) grounded to pin 8.  I get the red flashing security light on the TIM button.  If I then apply 12V+ also to ignition switched live (pin 4 yellow), the red flashing light goes out but nothing else happens.  I notice in that diagram that there is a permanent live 2 (pin 5 blue) - that would normally be a power out rather than in on an ISO lead so I haven't applied 12V to that.

Any more clues?

Thanks
Stuart

OK - you do need to connect power to both permanent lives.  That worked.  No CD, but at least I know the new owner will be getting a working unit.

Thanks all.
