So, I took the AMP back out cleaned the plugs with electrical cleaner and reinstalled and "Poof" I had sound.

Then fault showed on CD changer - so that was replaced also.

Unsuccessful attempt · Original poster
I took the radio back out and checked the plugs, in the back, (I never took any off - just added the two plugs from the harness, green and yellow) also checked the plugs for the harness going into the DC Changer, and that didn't help.
Replace radio (cdr-220) and system still didn't work

Unsuccessful attempt
Took it to dealer (car was still under factory warrantee and is CPO'd also) and radio fault showed up - dealer replaced radio (CDR-220) and system still didn't work.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

This is for my 1999 C2, with CDR-220 Radio and me installing a used CDC-3 Changer:
Okay I just installed the (trunk mounted) CD Changer; Now everything works EXCEPT the speakers. I had to take the battery out so the system was down and when I re-installed the battery I entered the radio code and like I said every works (stations, FM1, FM2, Radio CD and CDC - radio even showed that the CD was playing in each slot 1-2 etc.) but no sound. I took the radio back out and checked the plugs, in the back, (I never took any off - just added the two plugs from the harness, green and yellow) also checked the plugs for the harness going into the DC Changer, and that didn't help.
I asked Loren, over at RennTech but he didn't give much help.
Again, all was good before the install..now after the install..all is good but I have no sound.
Any help would be great,
Thanks,
Patrick
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance,
This happened to me shortly after I bought my car 2+ years ago. Took it to dealer (car was still under factory warrantee and is CPO'd also) and radio fault showed up - dealer replaced radio (CDR-220) and system still didn't work. Then fault showed on CD changer - so that was replaced also. Since then, no problems - plus I got a new CD changer and radio at zero cost. Your system needs to be checked for faults. Assuming the "mute" button isn't on
Hi and thanks for the reply....by everything works I mean that on the radio screen it show that I have either a station (radio) CD (CD inside radio) or CDC (CD in Changer showing any one of the 6 CD inside) working; but I have no sound! Also as PJorgen suggested, I've had the volume up to #27 and NO SOUND. i did have to unplug the AMP, but it's just two plugs and I checked them and they are 'tight'. As I said...before hooking the CD Changer up, there was sound coming out....now nothing. I guess it could be the Changer but the fellow I got it from said it was working fine (but who knows). Today after work I'll 'un-hook' the Changer from the radio and see what happens. ALSO, might there be a 'fuse' for the speakers or amp???
Thanks again for any help.
Patrick
Well, all is okay............As it turns out--if one takes an electrical connection loose after it has been hooked-up for about 10 years - said connection might not make a good connection after re-connecting!
This means that I took the plugs off of the AMP during the install of the CD Changer and when I reinstalled the plugs they didn't make a 'connection' and I had NO sound....I checked everything (fuse, hook-up from harness to radio/CD Changer) and all was GOOD! So, I took the AMP back out cleaned the plugs with electrical cleaner and reinstalled and "Poof" I had sound.
Just wanted to share for anyone that might do this with their 'older' Porsche.....
Thanks for all the replies,
C'ya,
Patrick
