Command.... We have a problem.

Has this happened to anyone else? The Mrs. went on a lengthy trip for the boys soccer and Commend just bit the bullet.

1) Sits at the MB logo for a minute and all you hear is static.
2) Goes to the second opening Command screen warning for a minute. Static.
3) Goes blank for a minute.
4) Back to step 1 again and it keep cycling through this.

Any help is much appreciated.

If that is the wife’s car (if I remember correctly), then you’re better off to bite the bullet and keep her happy lol…

Hardware arrived. I'm to old now to bother with DIY installs. So I'm taking it for a professional (hopefully) install. After a week of playing with it I will report back.
