Thread: Clicking motorised lcd, advice needed

I have a motorised lcd touchscreen witch worked wonderfuly well for quite a while. It is currently wired through the radio circuit (with a fuse, naturally). The radio cables have been modified so that the radio can be used with the ignition off, due to a memory problem.

For some reason, the screen has recently started to try and open itself when I turn on the ignition. It just goes click twice, as though there is a grinding gear somewhere.

The really strange thing is that it does the same thing when I switch off the ignition. Just two clicks. It's never happened before.

I will soon be building an epia (jetway) based machine with an M1 or M2-atx. Will connecting it to the 12v power supply deal with this? the harness on the screen has live, switched live and ground.

It was a pain in the backside to wire up the two units as the DIN slots are not on top of each other.

Car is 02 Citroen Berlingo running on an acer celery laptop with mediacar and a cig lighter adaptor! So looking forward to a stealth install
Cheers folks
