Wireless Headsets play nothing but static

Quest Yun's picture

My 2004 Quest with mid row DVD player worked great with the wireless headsets until a couple of weeks ago. I replaced batteries in both sets and still nothing but static. I monkeyed with all the buttons, read the manual, and cleaned the IR sensor on the DVD screen. Still nothing. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks-

Crazed Mom from listening to kid DVDs...I'd be crazier if I had to listen to the kids!

Have you tried to...

clean the sensors on the rear switches? I believe that the headphones are picking up their audio signals from the rear switch. I think the switches are located on headliner just behind the head of the driver... it should have the volume controls, and AM/FM, etc switches on it...
try to clean that lens, and make sure that the volume is way up, too. Just FYI, I think the IR lens on the display is for the remote control :-)

Success

I had monkeyed with those switches and the volumes but did not even recognize the sensor. I wiped it with a dry cloth and viola, it worked. THANKS!

PS. The remote works extra good now! ;-)
