ok so today, i went over a very very very small bump and all my speakers stopped working. the head unit is still working, the stacker is still working but no sound
the wiring all seems to be sweet, the fuse isnt blown it seems like its all ok...
we even took the head unit apart, and it had a bit of corrosion near the back so we cleaned it a bit, put it all back together and back in the car but still nothing
any ideas? we ran out of reasons why it wouldnt be working...
thanks, karina

Have had this prob before, if not working by valla will play with it. Is it particularly only with radio or CD? or both? if u were to get another speaker, and pull the head unit out, plug it up, will it work? if nuffin comes out of that speaker connected directly up, think ther might be a prob wit ur head unit, IE: perhaps a broken wire on hte output...

U running an amp?

Your head unit may just be stuffed, every so often a head unit dies... If all connections, fuses and settings are fine it'd most likely be within the unit itself.
Time to get it replaced!

it sounds like the pre amp in the head unit has died its easier to replace than fix

seeing as uve checked ure connections, u next want to determine if its ure speakers or head deck thats gone

to test ure speakers get a standard battery (AA, C or D) and tap the speaker wires to the battery. if ure speakers are still going then ull hear a "Thud" everytime u touch the wires

if that fails then it probably means ure head deck is gone. i would have a guess that the power amplification circuit might have died with that hard knock
