I was trying to install my Pioneer stacker and it doesn't work :D

I had it working before, but then it suddenly stopped.

I tested the power with a test light, and there is power going into the stacker, but when I press eject the cartridge doesnt come out.

whats going on!

On the deck I can't choose the stacker. It only cycles through the Tape deck and the Radio.

Does anyone know why this might be happening??

Hmmm, a few things to check....

Make sure the cable is conected correctly into both the head unit and the stacker.

Check the fuse that's near the stacker.

And the one that I forgot a few times is the earth wire for the stacker.

Give them ago.

Goodluck

The same thing happened to mine. It was under the seat, and a piece of fabric (from the seat cover) got jammed in there and it basically shut down. Check if anything has slid in with the cartridge...

One other thing I can think of is that the pioneer stackers have an adjustment on each side that lets it know if its installed horizontally or vertically. I'm not 100% but I think they have to be set the same on both sides for it to work (and set correctly)... worth a look anyway...

Yo checked that too :D

This is killing me hey!

At the moment I have to listen to shitty tapes coz I can't get good reception from the radio either!!! :P

Do you know the authorized Pioneer repairer in Perth by any chance :)

Actually JimiH u could be lucky, i took my Sony one to a local audio place and they said that the Pioneers are easy and quick to fix if anthing goes wrong - apparently it could take 3-6 months to get mine fixed by Sony so I basically ripped it out and gonna redo the stereo from scratch anyways. Hope you have better luck!

I think i'll check if any fuses are blown anyways - hopefully it could be just that and woohoo 12 disc stacker here i come! :(

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
