Dead Head, Alpine CDA9886

[seahound]

This head unit is in my boat. I use a Full Speed Cable that allows a 30pin iPod input. Since the unit does not allow for bluetooth music streaming, I put a Bluetooth receiver adapter on the 30 pin connector...same one I use in my car and in my house.

The HU, while in iPod mode, read "searching" but it never seemed to recognize the adapter...which is really odd.

Shut the unit off and that is where the problem began. Now it won't power back on. When I hold the power button I can feel the unit vibrate but the lights never come on and the unit does not play. I checked the fuse. I used the reset button. I unplugged and replugged the harness.

WTF? Little help??

Double check your power. If you have 12v at constant and acc and a solid ground -- HU is toast.
