  9. hi guys,thanks for your advice last week about buying a vr6...i got it yesterday and love it so much..i did panic when the temp warning light came on but searched the site and found its a common problem,i give her a good clean and driven it about 100 miles and all seems well...im having problems with the cd player,when i turn the igntion on or off the head unit lights up and sometimes plays....im thinking i have a prob between the head unit and ignition switch,does anyone know if i can thread a wire to the live termenal on the battery to the head unit to check this out cheers,arl
