Default Radio on...No sound? Fuse?

Guys

My C4S showed up today (yes I will post pictures when I wash it from transport). The radio is ON but I get no sound. I looked thru the fuse diagram and I see nothing for the AMP etc. Just radio and radio option. Both fuses are good.

Any other ideas or other fuses to check?

Verify amp connections in the frunk. Try another sound source (CD).

I am betting it's an RMS issue

Perhaps the HU connection is a little loose? Did you try fully disconnecting then resetting the HU?

This happened on my 04 C4S a while ago, started as an intermittent problem, turned out to be the amp. Best wishes that it turns out to be something less expensive for you.

I had the same thing recently. There is a fuse on the back of the hu that was blown. Quick fix if you have the tools to pull it. Good luck and looking forward to the pics-

I've had intermittent radio issue as first post mentions. My cure seems to be always turn radio off before turning car off and on after starting car. No issues since.
