Audio help needed!

Hey guys,

I had a pioneer head unit that stopped working (partially). The power worked amd it turned on fine but there was no sound. So I figured it was the internal amp in the head unit and went out amd got a new pioneer head unit. I installed the new unit and it got power and music played for about ten seconds then the sound went. The next morning I turned it on and sound came out for about twenty minutes then stopped again...

Anyone have any ideas?

I did install a whip antenna and left the old wire for the motorized antenna in then panels but it's not connected to anything so that wouldnt effect anything right?

I'm thinking about testing the voltage on the speakers to see if there is a short anywhere but want to get some advice first.

Thanks,

Tvbuster

The head unit is receiving power the whole time, though, just not putting out any sound?

Right the head unit has power but doesn't put out any sound whether it's a cd, radio or aux...

I would guess you have a speaker shorted to ground. Could be something with the antenna you did, but I'm not really sure what you left where etc. I would start by unhooking things at the head unit until it starts working again. First the ant, and then the speakers.

Awesome thanks, that was like a puzzle but it turns out I had a short near on of my speakers where the wire had a little hole in it. Thanks
