Headunit Shutting off,

[Mike516882 10+ year member]

Ok so here it is...I have an alpine 9830 Headunit and sometimes when i push a button to like either change the song or like push menu or even sometime when i just kind of push the faceplate to the side the Unit turns off. Then when i disconect the faceplate from the headunit and put it back on it doesnt do it anymore. I have no idea what this could be?

Check the connections in the back, maybe the power wires are not secure.

When you say it happens when you push a button, it could be that you are pushing too hard causing the face to disconnect from the HU itself. Or you are not properly putting it on... With my face, you can put it on incorrectly and it will still play, just when you touch it in some places it cuts off.

the faceplate is loose. same thing happens with my panasonic...hopefully you have a warranty. take it back or get it serviced.

I have the alpine cda-9835, and this was happening to me, try and use the remote (does the 30 come with a remote?) but anyway, when i skipped tracks on a cd, or went into the menu, it would just shut off and turn back on in seconds, i thought it was becuase it was getting to hot, i had it powering everything until i got an amp for my fronts, now its just powering the back 6x9's and it doesnt do it anymore, i dont think its a faceplate problem becuase even when i would use the remote it would still just shut off
