#1: SOLVED..Radio stopped completely, and dim multi-function.. Author: bluezilla, Posted: Tue Aug 04, 2015 5:14 am ---- Hi,
I have recently replaced my car radio, with no problems for a few days. After starting the car today i noticed the clock/dash display was very faint, and the radio wasn't showing any life at all....
I have checked fuses, both in the car and the unit, i have checked the plug on top of the multi-function display, and i have also had the red/yellow cables switched on the harness due to the age of the car and the way it is wired (which initially also worked fine) but all seems fine.
I don't know much about this kind of thing but I have got to the point that i no longer have any ideas on where to look next, any info/ideas would be great, if not then will have it looked at.
Cheers in advance Last edited by bluezilla on Tue Aug 04, 2015 7:45 am; edited 1 time in total

Author: bluezilla, Posted: Tue Aug 04, 2015 5:58 am ---- Oh, and i'm new here by the way but am happy to help where i can so will be keeping an eye on the forum. I have only owned the 206 for about a month so still new to stuff but hoping to pick things up by getting involved here as much as possible.
Didn't mention that the 206 is a 51 plate, 2002 1.1 lx with 60k on the clock, not sure what info is needed for these kind of issues.
Again, Hi and cheers in advance

Yes the car still starts fine and the mileage shows on the other display etc...
#5: Re: Radio stopped completely, and dim multi-function display... Author: bluezilla, Posted: Tue Aug 04, 2015 7:44 am ---- Its sorted. I was advised initially to check the F15 fuse and the fuse in the radio itself, but it turned out to be the F4 fuse that had blown.
I had kind of ruled out the fuses as the ones i checked were fine and i was getting a faint visual on the display, but it seems there are 2 fuses powering the display etc? Strange.
Thanks very much anyways.
Hope this helps someone as i've seen this subject in quite a few places.
