Technical Stilo Radio problem

[Fil23]

Looking for help please. Just got A fiat stil active 1.9 diesel 02 plate.

Have managed to get the fiat radio out. And have put a sony cd player in, but it won't come on, it is geeting no power.

I have got four coloured wires on the connector from the radio. Black, red, blue and yellow. I have macthed the red and black togther on the connector from the fiat, and put the other to in the same postion to that on the fiat, but I still don't get the radio to come on. I have tried switching them around but nothing happens. The only thing that does happen is on some of the combinations I try , it starts beeping on the dashboard display and sayin there is a loose connection. If I swithc the wires back it then stops. So it must know the radio is there but I still can;t get the thing to work.

Any suggestions. Thanks

Feed the red to the yellow of the ISO.

Welcome to the Forum btw, nice choice of car, any pics? colour?

Thanks for the reply. I will give it a try.

No pics at the moment. But colour is a metallic grey/blue.

Tried switching the wires, didn't work.

Have know tried putting the original radio back in and that won't work either.

Any other suggestions. Could I have blown a fuse.

sounds like a fuse if the original radio aint working as well.

I put a Kenwood cd radio in my Stilo and had to connect the yellow and red wires on the kenwood wiring the red has a spur off it and the yellow has a bullit connector joint so this was quite easy. However all works ok except i cant tune in any mw or lw chanels fm no probs Kenwood said the Stilo may have a power amplified ariel (if so an addaptor is needed as the OE radio would be designed for this) and this would be the reason why i cant get mw or lw anyone know if this is so or had similar probs ?
