Hi guys,
I'm not much of an electrician but I usually install my own sound systems and have done a few in my time.... however I'm having alittle bit of a problem.
I was installing a Sony CDX S2210X system. Everything was fine once i hooked it up and tested it.... then all of a sudden it cut out and the only thing it will do is allow me to put in or take out the cd when the ignition is turned on. I sorta lost my patience at this point and so I havn't removed all panels to get to the stereo again to check if it is a fuse thats blown... yet.... ( I will this weekend)...
Have I.....
A. blown the fuse for the continues power?
B. blown the fuse on in the unit?
C. stuffed the entire unit?
It's wierd as some power must be going into the unit as I can put a cd in, but the unit won't light up or do anything else.... I was thinking i might have just blown the fuse for continues power and since it needs both that and ignition power it's just not getting enough power supply to power the entire unit.
Please tell me if I'm on the right track....
P.S. It's going into the 280zx so you literally have to remove half the dash to get to the stereo again... so hopefully someone can diagnose the problem before i dismantle the car again...
cheers...
Problem has been now fixed......
