No sound from CD - FM works fine?

[Fletch_QLD]

Howdy. Kenwood MP3 CD unit (KDC-MP4029) - I recently hooked up new amp/speakers to the front, and the radio sounds great. However...

I just went to play CD and all looks good - the deck reads and plays the disc - displays ID3 tag and moves on to the next song - but no sound whatsoever.

Back to FM - all good.

B4 I go ripping the unit out, any ideas ?

Cheers

Volume knob?

Honestly couldn't tell you, maybe call the shop where you got it from or swing past and let them have a quick look. Does it play normal non mp3 cds?

And I remember some old mp3 players didn't like playing rw discs or cd's that hadn't had their sessions closed. However if it's reading the tags I guess it's a pretty good sign everything should be working.

Try a normal cd, if that doesn't work either call Kenwood or the place you got it from.

Volume knob?.

lmfao - but yeh - I thought of that, Same disc that was working yesterday not working today. Tried some factory discs and other mp3 discs that have previously played fine, just no sound (not even a hint at full volume).

The unit is out of warranty, but still may have to resort to trying kenwood.

PROBLEM SOLVED - I had hooked up the amp remote to the power aerial wire (blue wire) instead of the remote wire (blue with white stripe) As the aerial goes down switching to cd - so the amps turn off lol.

cheers :L()

haha wow.. I never would have thought of that as an option. Good to hear it's working.
