Plug pulled out the back or output transistors or fuses blown?

Tried the plug that wasnt it. I cant unplug the radio because I didnt get the code for it with the car. Or the owners manual. Anyone know what fuse is for the speakers?The fuse in the back of the radio id ok aswel.

You might have to go cap-in-hand to a Dealer and ask pretty-please for the code.

I just have no sound everything else works, tuning the channels etc etc. I just have no sound. The speakers are all connected up ,the two plugs at the back of the radio are in. Is there a fuse in the fuse board for the speakers??

theres no seperate fuse for the speakers, this is looking like a faulty radio set, the only other thing it could be is one of the speaker wires is shorted but even if that were the case I doubt it would cause all the other speakers to shut off.

Had a chat with my neighbour(audio electrician and very hard to get hold of) and he said that even if one speaker was dodgy the hole lot of them would stop working so I will have a go at that tomorrow. Along with putting a new exhaust centre section in..... :-[. It would be a xsara unless something didnt need fixing ha
