I have recently installed an aftermarket stereo......about two weeks ago....today I tried to start the stereo and it would not switch on.....the stand-by light is on...but it wont turn on. WHen I press the 'reset' button located on the face of the stereo the aerial does go up and then straight back down. There seems to be power to the unit?

Could it be anything to do with fuses? any ideas where these could be located?

Cheers in advance....

Most stereos have a permanent feed for the radio presets etc and a switched live (when the ignition is on or key at position one for accessories). Have you got both connected correctly? Usually a yellow and red wire. Your scenario may be because you've only connected the yellow wire? Not 100% sure but would know if I was at your car with the installation diagram. Something to recheck though....good luck
