Default HELP Mygig won't turn on!!

So the other day I noticed that my battery terminals were pretty corroded so today I had some time opened the hood and disco'd the battery to clean everything up and replace the battery. Installed the new battery got in the jeep to drive home and the mygig won't turn on. It does nothing, no jeep logo nothing at all.

2008 Jeep Sahara-U with Mygig RER (from the factory) and a Lockpick.


I've been using the lockpick since December with no issues at all. I am wondering though if I need to remove it since I probably reset the computer by disco'ing the battery, then re-install? Anythoughts are greatly appreciated.

That sucks. I have no idea what caused it. I replaced a battery in mine once but did nothing to my mygig. I do not use the lockpick though. I think you're on to something about needing to uninstall it though. Good luck! Hopefully someone will chime in with the correct thing to do.

Unplug the power in the back of mygig. Wait a few seconds then plug it in again. That happened to mine and it worked. I have lock pick too

I had this exact same issue. I unplugged the back of my lock pick and still nothing. It will still allow for DVD in motion but all other lock pick features are disabled and ot doesn't say VES on my screen or give me any of those options.
