TL;DR: would some kind soul with a CAN2004 RT6/RNEG2 create an image of their MicroSD card using Win32DiskImage (or otherwise) that I can try using to troubleshoot.
I've recently picked up an RT6 which continually reboots. It gets as far as flashing the Peugeot screen up (less than a second) then goes blank again. My idea was to try reflash it and see if it comes good... except it won't accept a CD in the drive (doesn't open the mechanism) and my USB adaptor hasn't arrived yet. I tried splicing an old USB, but it looked like power wasn't getting to any drive plugged in.
I opened up the CD drive by hand and could see the mechanism which is blocking the disc. It looks like when a disc is inserted, a sensor should pick this up and open the mechanism - I'm not sure if mine is broken or simply because of the state the unit is currently in. Anyway, I've manually inserted a copy of a fw disc (2.77, 2.85 and 2.86 - all same result) then tried with a blank microSD card but although the disc spins up, the unit doesn't actually do anything - the laser only moves at the very beginning then doesn't do anything else. With the blank MicroSD however, it no longer displays the Peugeot screen before it reboots.
I just wondered if I put an image from another CAN2004 RT6 unit if I could get any sort of improvement? Is anyone with a CAN2004 RT6 (the one with a faceplate built in) willing to open their unit up to take a backup image for me? Or if anyone has any other ideas I can try with this head unit?
