Read evidence and context

Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that performed work without a confirmed outcome: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Instead of being satisfied with that and moving on to other jobs I decided to reconnect the CD multi changer that had been disconnected by the previous owner...you can see where this is going.

I connected up a Sony stereo using the ISO to Sony adaptor and it worked straight away.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi everyone, Ive recently bought a 986 (in the UK) and I have a few small jobs to to, and rather cleverly managed to add an extra one today! I connected up a Sony stereo using the ISO to Sony adaptor and it worked straight away. Instead of being satisfied with that and moving on to other jobs I decided to reconnect the CD multi changer that had been disconnected by the previous owner...you can see where this is going. Sure enough, now I have no power to the stereo. The CD changer didnt power up and I suspect has blown a fuse somewhere along the way. Everything else seems to be working fine but there is no power on the ISO cable. I have been through all the fuses in the footwell but there are all fine (continuity tested). Are there any other fuses I should check or can anyone suggest what else I need to look at? Many thanks.
