i have a 95 wrx with aerial on rear quarter, so yesterday i was listening to radio and all was working perfect with aerial retracted, station tuned in etc, then today i cant pick up any fm/am stations not even my ipod transmitter thingy. i also notice aerial is staying down and theres no sound, not even the fuzzy sound, so i unplugged aerial from headunit and plugged it all up again,aerial retracts fine, but still no radio pick up or noise?? the pioneer headunit displays/functions all seem normal, just hit a brickwall with this one,
Any help/answers would be appreciated,

 

checked headunits fuses and they too are good,does anyone have info on how the aerial sends/receives to headunit, eg wiring, or what u think it could be thats preventing any signal

 

Did you get this sorted? I'd be checking the blue "remote" lead from the head unit which sends +12v to power up the aerial when the head unit is on and also powers up a signal amplifier to amplify the aerial signal for the head unit.

 

well as i took out stereo for a wee look i noticed a sticky purple substance all over head unit

as i was removing the cup holder unit, i then clicked,, daughterhad squeezed her ribena carton as she was trying to makeit fit into cup holder, and blew the headunit, cheers for replying, much appreciated. cheers,
