Hi guys,

I need some advise on my old kenwood deck that i connected to my el falcon. Everything seems ok but i cannot get sound through the speakers. Illumination is fine, cd ejects, all speaker wiring is connected to the factory wiring but no sound!!

The funny thing is if i connect a amplifier to the kenwood deck than i get sound but if that is disconnected than no sound!!

pls help!!

cheers

Sounds like the internal amp of the headunit has given up mate.

kenwood decks are pretty ordinary in general

so when you connect an amp to run speakers through rca's it plays sound?

i would agree that the head units internal amp is gone.

just keep running an amp or look at a new deck, pioneer or alpine is a good start

id pull it out and just retest that you have the wires correct.
if you do, then as said above, no good!
