Spaceman Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 Just post it here mate and am sure people will help you if they can whats it concerning? Greig
roy_hall Posted March 13, 2007 Author Posted March 13, 2007 bought a pioneer mp3/cd/radio. tuned the radio in but it loses reception[:@] searches for alternative but finds absolutely nothing?? i'm in aberdeen at the minute but kev at T&C is on holiday so don't know who to get to check it out for me. Any help would be appreciated.
st3ph3n Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 Do you have a new age by chance? It sounds to me like your powered antenna isn't switching on as I had the exact same problem. I think if you check your subaru to iso harness you'll find there's one wire that your pioneer stereo isn't providing a feed to. I'm certain it's the blue wire. What you need to do is cut that wire then splice or blade it into the switched 12v line. That way when you turn your ignition on the signal amp will get powered up, as it isn't at the moment.
roy_hall Posted March 13, 2007 Author Posted March 13, 2007 took your advice - sparky at work checked wiring diagrams plugged 12v feed in (supplied) and hey presto.[] thanks for help[Y] where in glasgow are you based? i'm Bellshill but up in Aberdeen just now
st3ph3n Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 I'm just down in Bothwell. The shell in Bellshill's one of my local watering holes. I've learned a lot about the electronics behind the dash in the Impreza. Got a few things wired in now, splitter for cigarette lighter socket hardwired in the back, defi gauges taking their power from the stereo harness too. It's my specialist subject on SIDC Mastermind!
