Neil1972 Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 I fitted a new stereo to my mk 2 Galaxy 2005. It worked for about 30mins then went off and now there is no power on the ignition lead. It still has power on the permanat live and no fuses have blown. I cannot understand what has happended. ;) Quote
Staceh Posted March 1, 2012 Report Posted March 1, 2012 Theres often a fuse on the stereo itself, usually a blade fuse in the back, or one inline. (Assuming you mean no fuses in the car have blown?) Or Duff head unit? Quote

(Assuming you mean no fuses in the car have blown?) Or Duff head unit?Hi the head unit works fine if i connect both yellow and red to yellow but it is always on so will run battery down. The fuse on the headunit is fine and i can find no fuse for the ignition live. Quote
Neil1972 Posted March 2, 2012 Author Report Posted March 2, 2012 Ok solved the problem, there are two fuses one is 20amp for the permanant live and one for the switch live which is fuse 31. This had blown as it was only 3 amps. I checked all the 10amp and 5amp ones as did not expect it to be so low. Have replaced with a 5amp and all seems to be good now. Thought I would post this in case anyone else had the same issue. :) Quote
