mally002 Posted December 23, 2006 Share #1 Posted December 23, 2006 I will be the first to admit that Radio's and wiring are not my strong point. This has to be so simple, but I can't figure it out. Got in the car this morning radio is working fine. Just went out to the store, and the radio lights are on, but no sound. I checked the speakers, contacts are good. There is no static, or any type of sound what-so-ever, however the radio is working fine.Any thoughts?Thanks,Randy Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/22735-radiono-sound/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
e_racer1999 Posted December 23, 2006 Share #2 Posted December 23, 2006 if i were you i'd check the connections to the back of the radio, then see if any wires happened to get pinched. if all else fails, give her the ol' smackaroo Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/22735-radiono-sound/#findComment-193568 Share on other sites More sharing options...

EScanlon Posted December 23, 2006 Share #5 Posted December 23, 2006 You inserted a Blank Tape?Data CD instead of Music CD?Picture DVD instead of CD?Volume turned down to Zero?The DX/Local switch has been changed and there are no local stations?AM band has no stations in that area?Antenna has been disconnected?Radio lighting on a separate circuit than power feed? Burnt Power Fuse?You're tuned into the National Bereavement Radio channel and all they broadcast are minutes of silence?Fader control set to all Rear speaker and there are no Rear speakers? (or vice versa)Otherwise, I question that the radio is "working fine".2¢E Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/22735-radiono-sound/#findComment-193575 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mally002 Posted December 23, 2006 Author Share #6 Posted December 23, 2006 Ok, I'm still laughing after that last post. I have no idea why but I took eracer's advice and did give it a good smack(out of frustration I admit).....Radio's working fine now. So, I guess I'll be tracking down all the #$!#$% wires.

So, I guess I'll be tracking down all the #$!#$% wires.ridiculous as it may seem, smacking the radio out of frustration has prevented me on several occasions from buying a new head unit! it's probably the connector in the back or a wire whose integrity has been compromised. glad to hear it's working now!

larryroney Posted November 24, 2008 Share #8 Posted November 24, 2008 Well I have very little sound. I can hear it slightly when the car is off but forget it once it is reved up. Any suggestions?
