Have i killed my radio

spudd · Oct 6th, 2019, 10:15

This morning looking for the fuse to the 12 volt power sockets I decided as I couldn't find it I would pull all the fuses and check. I had the radio on without thinking I pulled the fuse. The radio is an hu850 it lights up shows and changes channels, spits out the cd when I ask it to but have no sound.

Have you pulled the fuse to the amplifier?

Wouldn't have thought you'd have killed it, as pulling fuse is just pulling the power in reality.

If all fuses are back in and good and it's still not working. Disconnect the car battery for a few minutes then reconnect it and see if it bursts into life.

Cheers will give it a go when the boss gets back.

Hi.
I know it may be stating the obvious but have you tried turning the volume knob up?
The volume default at initial power up is right down so you wouldn`t hear anything. I believe it`s to protect the speakers.

I have no front power sockets, no radio, no sat nav,
Did you find an answer?
I have checked all fuses and waggled relays to no avail.

My unit had the same fault, it lit up etc as you describe, it will need repairing, this guy Marcel near Ipswich has just repaired mine, fast turnaround 2-3 days, email mdconsultancy@btinternet.com.
