Stereo problem

[jayod12b]

Well lads have a bit of a problem with my stereo past few weeks,
Wont power on normally but on a hot day aerial shoots up and everything works fine,
Ive checked for loose wires and fuses seems ok,
Cant think of anything else,
Anyone got any ideas
Thanks jay

i think i know wot the prob is jay. the altinator. but it could be the engine aswell. sounds a llittle bit like the gear box is given trouble

the engine?

Get yourself a multimeter and measure the voltage. I had a similar issue when i fitted my stereo (it obviously required more power than the previous one) and would light up but not work. I had to fit another grounding point to get the voltage up -presumably a grounding point somewhere had become less effec tive. Only a suggestion, of course your stereo may just be broken.

That's some contribution for a first post.
