Radio troubles

Featured Replies

Hi guys, so in my octy I have a pioneer radio, that was already in the car and working etc.

 

I had a spare Sony explode radio lying around with Bluetooth USB aux all that sort of stuff, it was a working unit 6 years ago and has been lying around ever since, I connected it up but was no power, put it down to the unit being knackered.

 

Went to put the pioneer back in and there's nothing, doesn't seem to be getting any power.

 

I've checked the 15amp radio fuse and it's fine swapped it out for another 15 amp just incase and still nothing.

 

Is there likely to be another hidden fuse anywhere or am I likely to have knackered the once working radio 🙊

 

Cheers

Just incase anyone else ever has a similar issue, I figured the problem out, checked for power and was getting power at the permanent live, but nothing on the wire for the switched ignition power.

 

then had another look at the fuse box diagram and found fuse number 10 mini 10 amp fuse protected the Ignition, S-contact (For power consumers, e.g. the radio, which can be operated with the ignition switched off as
long as the ignition key is not withdrawn) stuff.

this fuse was blown swapped it out for a good 10 amp fuse and problem solved.

Glad you got it sorted. Thought it was the dash fuse (as said elsewhere).
