I recently installed a used JVC cd player in my car (it had been sitting in my friend’s house for a few years so he gave it to me.) I turned on the car and everything was working fine for a little while. Then, after a few minutes, it started making this weird beeping noise that continued to speed up. I pulled it out and noticed that the heatsink was EXTREMELY hot. I left it out to cool off and then started the car again, with my hand on the heatsink. I could instantly feel it getting warm, and within 7 seconds or so it was too hot to touch. I’m not sure how to tell if the CD player is the culprit or if it’s my wiring (which I have checked several times.) Any ideas????
