Rcd510 coding
« on: 29 March 2014, 14:42 »
Do i need to code my rcd510 to my car? It had an rcd310 before every few minites it makes a noise like its looking for a cd with the keys out can't help but think this is draining the battery the stereo is brand new genuine

My GTD was specced with the RCD 510 from new. It also makes the sound you describe, but not every few minutes; only occasionally. I've never had any issues with it draining or flattening the battery though.

No idea mate.  Have you searched the threads in the car audio section or this section.

A quick search came up with these.  Have a read through, might shed some light on it.  Second link is for RNS 510 but should be same for RCD 510 unit
