Head Unit has no power....

Recommended Posts

Tried turning my radio on the other day in the rado and there is no power getting to the head unit. I looked at the fuse box and that all looks fine.

 

The only thing that I've done to the electrics since I last used the radio is fit an external up-rated headlight loom and change the battery.

 

I had the head unit out to check the back of it and I did find a loose wire...

does this have anything to do with my problem do you think?

The only power carrying cables are:

 

Red - permanent live

yellow - ignition live

black - earth

 

have you checked the fuse on the back of the head unit (silly question i know).

the two in you photos look like outputs for something maybe sub/electric aerial

Hey Alex, As above you only need 3 wires (2 really but one is ignition)

 

All the others are extra...

 

Multimeter is gonna be the only way... Brown / Black earth Red is ignition and yellow is permament live.

 

So yellow only goes live when the ignition is on..

 

Sorry If you know all this already :)
