Hi! I hope someone can help me as this is driving me crazy!
I've had a Fiat Bravo 2001 for some time and two days ago i bought a new Sony stereo to replace the stock one. After discovering Halfords couldn't fit it until January 31st i decided to go ahead and try and do it myself.
All seemed to work fine until i turned it off and it lost all the settings.
in the leads in the back there are a yellow and red plug and a double yellow socket and a red socket, the continuous and ignition power things... currently it only works when the red and yellow plugs are in the double yellow socket. When the red socket is in the red plug and the yellow socket in the yellow plug, the engine makes the stereo whir but the head unit refuses to come on.
what on earth have i done wrong? has something blown do you think? I should say when i got it all out to look at again this evening something sparked quite heavily. oh god, what have i done :-( :-(
