Title: No stereo...
Post by: slipd on April 14, 2025, 07:17:33 am

Hi guys,

I've lost all power to my head unit - was working fine on Saturday.

Yesterday I didn't drive her but I did connect my Ring pump to the cigarette lighter to pump the tyres so guessing I must have blown a fuse somehow?

Does anyone know off the top of their head what I need? I'm in town today and was looking to pick something up before home :happy2:

Thanks.

Check the engine bay fuse box, that's where the fuse for the radio is.

Should be here if you fuse box looks like this:

Nice one, cheers mate! I stopped and picked up a generic box of fuses yesterday. Interestingly, by the time I got back to my car and turned key, the radio was working again... Very odd! I'm keeping an eye on it :wink:
