Stock radio no sound

[Colllin]

Today my radio was working fine and all of a sudden no sound came out of the speakers. The radio is still working and on but no sound. I do have the monsoon system with the amp in the trunk.

[2000aleroff]

could be a wire in the back of the head unit. or the stock radio could just have blown a fuse or died. i suggest checking the wires and if they arent it try putting an aftermarket stereo in to see if that works

[Colllin]

i've checked the fuses in the box is there one in the headunit that goes to speakers. has this happened to anyone else

[Colllin]

anyone

Its a blown fuse somewhere or the monsoon amp took a dump.

[Colllin]

if its the amp how do i fix it

[SittinOnChrome]

My radio was doing the same thing when I had a water leaking near my fusebox. I replaced my winshield after everything dried up it was back to normal working order.

[CactusWill]

Theres 3 fuseboxes, you've checked all of them?

[cherrington17]

the antenna is ON the back window. there is a little power amp that sits inside the C pillar. sometimes the connections go bad. you'd have to tear out the molding in the back and take a look.

[Ryan from Ohio]

Thats because it goes through the radio.

that sucks dude, id just get a new system all together.

But hey, unless im wrong, even if the amp died wouldnt the speakers still work, or were they completely powered by the amp?

[Ryan from Ohio]

Um amps power speakers.

So ya if the amps dead, no workie.

[Cliff8928]

You'd have to bypass the amp if it were bad.

Yes if you run new speaker wire to all speakers.

[Cliff8928]

You would have to either run new wires to all the speakers or jumper the wires at the amp connector in the back.

[Colllin]

if its the amp who it just be easier to get another one.

[Cliff8928]

Yeah, if you could get a known good one for cheap.

You did check all the fuses, etc.. for it, right?

[Cliff8928]

You could just jumper the wires at the amp connector. If I remember right, the radio adapter harness will plug right in and you can jumper the appropriate wires.

I would try the radio first, and see if the internal amp in the radio itself took a dump. Just need to splice into any speaker pair and hook a cheap speaker to it. If it plays the radio is fine and the monsoon amp is dead. If you get nothing, you need a new headunit.
