Radio not working
Hi all
Following my recent altercation of a bovine variety I managed to change the ariel that was damaged , removed my radio to plug in the ariel and on putting it back no power, zilch , nada nowt , check fuses and all seem to be fine , changed them anyway just to make sure , the small 10 amp in the rear of the radio looks ok but I haven't change it as I didn't have one that small.
Anything else I should check ? I don't have acces to voltmeter thingy, or have another head unit about to check!
It's an Alpine after market one , can't remember the model as I'm at work at moment
Oh and me and electrical skills or knowledge are nonexistent
Thanks
Greg

Rear fuse is probably a mini blade fuse, they cost pennies to replace.
Have you checked the ISO DIN. (Main plugs and sockets) for the rear of the radio / HU are fully plugged in and secure?
My HU is acting up too, however, I think o know why but they can fail after a while.

Checked the ISO cables and all appear secure , will try the fuse on the back when I can get somewhere that has them

Does anyone know if the standard ariel is earthed ?
If so is it by the clip that the bottom on the sleeve fits in inside the wing ?
Sorry for the memory questions , just wondering if that would have a bearing on the radio not working
