Alpine 9887r HU - Powers up but no sound?



  Mini JCW
I bought an Alpine 9887r HU for my 172 cup tonight, attempted to install it and I have encountered a problem :

The HU powers up fine and reads the CDs no problem, but theres no sound at all?:S

Any obvious oversights i've missed? If not any other suggestions?

Many thanks

Are the speakers plugged in?
Is the volume turned up?

Yes and yes mate.

Thing is, while the ISO harness fitted fine, there were a couple of connector blocks from the main harness which couldnt be connected to the alpine HU, one's red and one's yellow - any ideas? I'll get a photo up of the connecting blocks in question tomorrow.

Many thanks

That red female connector was already connected to the red wire so that can be ignored. Not sure about the other yellow one!

I'll pull my HU out tonight and have a look and the plug configuration, I'm sure that's the prob!

Check the settings to make sure the internal amp is on.

If its been used with amps, it may be switched off.

Cheers for the replies.

The seller on TA has confirmed your suggestions - the internal amp needs switching back on. I'll give it a go tomorrow :)

Cheers

Easy mate. If your struggling to get cables in then remove panel below heater controls and u can drag them down there
