  • Verify the constant 12V (usually yellow wire) and ignition-switched 12V (usually red wire) connections are secure and receiving power with a multimeter.
  • Ensure the ground wire (usually black) has a solid connection to the vehicle's chassis.
• No hi ha so dels altaveus:
  • Confirm all speaker wires (pairs of solid and striped colors) are correctly connected to the vehicle's speaker wires and are not shorted to ground or each other.
  • Check the head unit's settings (e.g., fader, balance, mute function).
• Head Unit Not Turning Off with Ignition:
  • Verify the ignition-switched 12V wire connection. It should only have power when the ignition is on.
• Funcionalitat intermitent:
  • Inspeccioneu totes les connexions per detectar si hi ha fluïdesa o corrosió.
