Tried it with the ignition off, on and running still the same response.
The only power coming to the radio is on the constant live nothing on the ignition feed.
I was starting to think there may be another inline fuse somewhere but iam f****d if i can see where.!!
Someone remind me never to fiddle with things!!!!!!!!!! |

Does the interior light work? Thats on the same fuse. There are two for the radio. Check the relays in the engine bay too, sometimes the contacts get dirty and stick. _________________ Isuzu Trooper SWB 3.0DT Commercial |

Sorry for the lengthy reply guys. Thanks for the tips. I cheated and took it down to one of the better local autosparks. Turned out there was a damaged wire in the loom that was causing it.
Someone remind me not to fiddle with things again please!!! |
