Thanks for the prompt reply. In the end, after poking round further, I discovered the JVC unit (from Crutchfield) has a pin-type reset button behind the removeable faceplate. One push and presto! Everything works as intended. I'm going to place an in-line multimetre/voltmetre to the power supply to check for voltage spikes while in operation.
My success here with the JVC unit doesn't explain why the factory unit stopped working last November, but since I'm hip to what it might be, I'll give it a once over on the bench to see if that fuse mentioned was the culprit. I just figured it was a bad unit after 24 years in the Pacific NorthWet.
The Ranger Station rocks!
