We recently bought a 1999 3 door Freelander which was running perfect. The other day we bought a Sony Stereo to replace the original R770 head unit. All the plugs seem to fit fine and have the new Sony Stereo working great BUT......
As soon as the new stereo was in, the fuel gauge reads full (even though its not), the tail gate motor keeps running and the indicators seem to make the rear motor louder.
The central locking seems to be intermittent too.
Turning the headlights on seems to influence the tail gate motor.
When buying this Freelander, the garage said something about a particular wire that needs connecting to prevent some electrical problems. (not sure what problem).
All we can see is an orange/red wire on the car harness that is not connected to anything on the stereo.
Is anyone aware of this problem?
Can anyone PLEASE help us????
