Hello, and thank you for posting your question at Just Answer.

More than 2 hours has elapsed since you posted your question, and you are receiving this notice as a courtesy reminder and follow up to see if you still need it answered.

Just answer typically has quick response times by verified and knowledgeable experts... however some questions CAN slip through the cracks unanswered.

Response time can vary as well - depending on a few factors like...

** Difficulty of the question.
** Clarity of the question.
** Question is mis-categorized.
** All pertinent information like any Error Codes, Country, or YEAR/MAKE/MODEL is not included or incorrect.
** A Verified Expert (knowledgeable about your question) is not currently signed in or available.
** The Value of the question is too low.
** The Question has no answer or the answer could violate the law.
** Too much time has passed for an Expert to spend time answering it - to have it never be accepted.
** Question should be directed to the manufacturer (see below)

Just Answer is a technical self-help site, and not affiliated with any manufacturers.

While some manufacturers DO post a Just Answer banner on their sites to help ease their customer service load, and get their customers immediate help with their product, issues like billing, passwords, and other issues can ONLY be resolved and accessed by the manufacturer.

Just Answer Experts do not have access to these items or database systems.

Just Answer does not SELL any products, nor are Experts allowed to have outside (off-site) contact with Customers.



That said, please review your question for accuracy, clarity, value, etc. and use the REPLY button if you would still like your question to remain posted for answer.


Any "Good Faith" monies you placed on deposit remain in your account for use at a later time unless/until you release it to an expert in the form of an ACCEPT.


If you choose not to keep your current question posted for answer - no reply is necessary.

Thanks!!

what information do you need

If you have made your appointment, gotten the device replaced/fixed, or if you still would like an answer to your question.

Also - the Xpress has a few different versions:

  • Audiovox Xpress RCi
  • Audiovox Xpress R
  • Audiovox Xpress EZ
  • Audiovox Xpress
If it is the original XPRESS (MANUAL LINK)...

Inspect the car power cable - especially when it is plugged in to the Xpress. Gently wiggle the plug and see if seems loose or a snug fit. Any movement may indicate the power jack has been damaged or broken from the circuit board.

Do you have the remote? Are you able to change the channels via remote? This may also indicate damage to the circuit board - if buttons on the unit, itself are unresponsive.

Unfortunately, in the case it needs significant repairs, having a repair on the Xpress would not be a sound investment. It is likely to cost more than a good used or new unit. If you have money tied up in accessories, and like the unit operates... Check eBay for a suitable replacement. HERE is one currently listed.

For $45, you can have a replacement - whereas a repair charge of 2 hours plus parts would be in the $90 range (depending on your location)

I hope this was enough information for you to make an informed decision.

Thanks for the opportunity!
