Sendai head units

[dozydavenport]

Hi guys,
Anyone know what the company is that actually makes these? Can't find it on google and would really like to deal with these rather than halfords about a faulty unit,
Just in case anyone's interested
The music goes crackly and cuts out mid corner and returns upon straightening up, any ideas of course will be gratefully received,
Also any help with contacting the company directly preferably through email will be gratefully received!
Cheers!

I'm sure they're some chinese branded import, so the odds of them having a UK office are slim

As they're normally very cheap its probably going to be easier to dump it and buy another?

Radio, CD, USB, anything? crackle in every speaker of just one or one side....more info required.....

Sounds more likely to be an installation problem than a problem with the unit itself...

This, or a dodgy wire in a door jam or something along those lines.

Just cd(I think) it was out of both sides front and back while I was going round a corner, because someone had hard wired the previous head unit in, the power source had to be spliced together, just looked at the wiring harness and the clip was open? Re closed it and taped it up now, seems to be less crackle when stationary so will report back when I pop out next!

That oughta do it! re-making the live and earth with a soldered joint will be more reliable than crimp terminals.

Sendai are owned by Halfords according to my local branch!

You would have thought they would have come up with a more european sounding name though.

I assumed it was based in Sendai, Japan.

Well I went for a drive and no problem solved!
Getting a bit annoyed but I'm going to wait until the 11th of feb and get my stepdad to look at it, he's quite handy with auto electrics, going to see if be can sort the rest of the loom out going to the stereo so that it's not hard wired,
Halfords you are total and utter WS!
