Nakamichi - Display looks like hieroglyphics, flickers, missing segment, missing digits, or no display, parts are not available for this repair.
 
*NOTE - For Nakamichi, intermittent speaker output, lose of volume to some speakers? Our local dealership says there is an equalization unit located behind the glove box in need of repair, we have never seen or found one! What are they talking about? We have seen this to be a stereo or amplifier problem in most cases. However, the stereo and amplifier communicate with each other. Try disconnecting the car battery for several minutes then reconnect, this may reset the system.

N204 / C717ULOA

Radio on with low or no volume could be car stereo or amplifier. This requires some troubleshooting on your part. Particularly on the '92 Nakamichi system, there is no amplifier in the trunk. Speakers will have low volume then be fine the next day, this is a stereo problem. We no longer repair this Nakamichi stereo.

Nakamichi - No audio from one or more speakers. This problem may be defective speakers with Nakamichi only. See Car Stereo Removal Pages.

Before Thinking of Repairing Amplifier

Is it a speaker or Nakamichi amplifier problem? Speaker problems are common in the Nakamichi system. If your car's tweeter works and the door speaker does not, the door speaker is bad. It is always best to check speakers before removing the amplifier for repair. Try a working speaker in a non-working position for testing purposes.
Many of our door panel removal instructions for Lexus speakers also include help with aftermarket speaker installation.
Our repair rate for these amplifiers is $250-350. With the amplifier removed, you will have no audio. We suggest sending the stereo with the amplifier. There are occasions where the stereo can be the problem.
Six month warranty on repair.
