Stereo has no audio, just static.

Last night picking up my daughter from brownies and listening to a Queens of the Stonage track thinking it doesnt sound bad, get in car this morning and all i get is static from all the preset stations ?
First thought was antenna is damaged but as its internal i cant see how ?

Have you got the base model stereo or the hi-line model . Base model has the 1-6 buttons under the screen for pre set stations . Have you tried to push the FM or AM buttons and just make sure 1 is not stuck .i think there is like FM -1 and also FM -2 and you may not have stations programmed on the other option - if that makes any sense.

Base model, yeah i tried changing band and to CD etc but no change. Might have to check the antenna connection where ever it is in the rear.

Does the CD work? If not I presume it would indicate that it's not an aerial problem.

I dont have any cd's in the car to check, my old car had a mechless unit so i just used files on SD or USB.
Strange that all the stations i saved in the preset's are still there because it sounds like it's not tuned in.

Try and remove the fuse and reset the unit ( not sure if a hard reset does the same ) and start again .

nit that hard to get to the back of the unit but a reset of sorts would be easier for a start.

Looking on Disco3 forum its possible that the antenna connection to the window has been dislodged, i had 2 10yo kids in the back so its quite possible and my old tyres after i had the new ones fitted.

I was going to say... give it 24 hours and it might come good.. . Annoying suggestion I know but my audio needs a rest too after some maxed out Angels tracks. Seriously... 24 hours of powered down rest seems to work sometimes...
