Not A 205 Question

[Craigb 2]

I am probably going to sound daft here , but what the F**K.

 

 

 

Sat in my WRX in traffic last weekend . And I get a message on the RDS display on the radio .

 

 

 

The message reads

 

 

 

CALL

 

 

 

The radio signal is interuppted and the thing starts ringing like a phone ?

 

 

 

Anyone experienced this ?

 

 

 

Do i need to call the white van ?

Was it a hot and humid day? Were you dehydrated?

 

Definitely think you should call the White Van!!

 

Failing that have you tried Scoobynet? Maybe a WRX thing?

No , it could have been the thought of the pub though .

 

Have put it up on scooby net , but no replies yet .

 

I knew Stella would get me in the end

 

 

At least Jayne was with me , or no one would have believed me !!!

Must have something to do with the telephone mute wire on the headunit. My handsfree kit is wired into the headunit so that it displays call when a signal is applied to the wire, doesnt explain the ringing though.

i had a oldskool kenwood tape player and i had the same message, no ringing noise tho, but once it said call i had no sound at all, i has to turn unit off and back on again, never solved the problem completely tho.

My "ahem" Rover used to do this when it felt like it - was down to a nokia handsfree kit which hadn't been fully removed and just stuffed under the dash.

 

cheers

maybe your unit is blue toothe enabled and there was some one in a car nearby with a wireless headunit maybe it was interferance ? sorry if this is a stupid reply but it just seems what i think may have happened
