My remote for my Pioneer Head Unit doesn't work anymore? Tried the other day, nothing happens, I haven't touched the Head Unit since I installed my 6x9's months ago and the Remote was still working then, any idea's?

Most pioneer remotes are universal. Particular series/range's often use the same remote, so maybe find someone else who has a similiar headunit, and try their remote on ur headunit.

Also, try YOUR remote on THEIR headunit.

See if any of that works.

This will help determine whether the problem is your headunit, or your remote.

PS: I wasnt kidding before, check the battery! lol

Battery would die after a month? And it was only used a couple of times? I'll try it, but thanks for the smartass comments.

lol if it turns out to be the battery :owned: .
Sorry mate that would have been the first thing i would have tried. My remote for my old alarm system on my TR died one day, first thing i did was replace the batteries. Did the trick nicely :).
