ignition wire gives no voltage

Post by vw55raz »

my headunit was working perfectly, but stopped working, checked all the wires behind the HU and everything is intact, checked with a voltmeter and there is no voltage coming from the ignition wire when ignition is turned on.

As a temporary solution i wired the Constant 12v to the red and yellow wires.

Anyone know why the ignition wire dont work no more? is there a fuse for it?

There is a fuse for the radio directly - I cant remember which one it is, but it has a compass on it I think in the fusebox.
