help fixing clarion flip out

OK guys a friend gave me a clarion flip out stereo, he says i just quit working on him when he was changing to a new vehicle, basically it will play music but no screen, now im good with electronics and fxing them but need to know what to get to be able to work on this thing at home, like a converter to be able to start it. I just dont know if its a special type of power converter for a stereo. Sorry i might sound dumb on this but have never attempted to fix a stereo outside the vehicle. thanks for your help on this.
