Stereo just stopped working

[Dan_VX_Spac]

As the title says pretty much

I was driving home stereo working all fine then all of a sudden now sound at all!!!
I checked and there is no power to the amps but all power wires are connected, what could it be?

[sweefu]

Ground mate? Checked the cable connecting to the battery? Fuses?
Cheers.

I'd be checking the fuses first up. That's all there is between the battery and amp to interrupt the power supply. There's a chance you have worn through the power cable insulation somewhere and its shorted out to blow the fuse, so if the fuse is gone you will have to hunt down the reason why

[Dan_VX_Spac]

is there no power to the amps or is it getting power from the battery just no signal from the headunit?

[Dan_VX_Spac]

Yeah i found the problem it was the main fuse from the battery it had shattered, got a new one with a breaker and is all good now cheers for the help

[Philthy]

Shattered!? How does that happen?

[acarmody]

Might off moved on top of something and got shattered when bonnet closed. Very nearly happened to me when I was installing mine. I accidently put it on top of fuse/relay box when I was laying cable.
