lol I didn't mean that. I meant have you got power to the radio in general ie does the radio work and not the CD changer (theres like 5 fuses that can be related to the audio system
)

Ahh its your ignition power. its a common fault! - its fuse 18 or something like that.
Its one of the fuses with the engine power spark on it - mate of mine had exactly same problem the other day.
