GTX power up

Post by NIFOG291 »

I have a GTX model M11WGD4CB1AN. When I pwer it up the display flashes for a second then goes out. Right now there is no accessory plug. Do I need to give 12v to a pin on the plug to get it to stay on? I'm also never going to use it. I'd be willing to part with it for short money if it works. I hate to trash it if someone has a use for it.

Pin 10 on the acc. plug must have 12 volts supplied as an ignition control.
I use a jumper between pin 4 and pin 10 on my plugs
Here is some detailed info about this radio.

Thanks Bob, Another member PM'd me that link and I've actually sold the radio. This stuff is exactly why I love this website.
