Again, more electric problems with the 205.

Blew a couple of fuses in the car the other day (powered the front wipers, brake lights, radio, interior light and a few other bits)

Replaced the fuse, everything that wasn't working now all works fine except the stereo

I checked the mini-fuse (10A) behind the stereo, that's intact.

There's no sign of burning or shorting on any of the plugs or terminals themselves

Any other ideas??
anyone?? Sad
Any breaks in the door looms? Hmm scratch that surely speaker wire would just cause the stereo to either switch off or blow the 10a

Usual earth points checked?

Switched the ignition and permanent live round or was it working before?
Something somewhere is drawing too much power, sure you have the right fuses in the right places?
Trace the wiring back and identify if there are any breaks in the cable.
I know in the 306 there are 2 positions for the radio fuse, 3 slots, top, middle and bottom. The middle and bottom slot work and the top one is for something else. Is the radio fuse in the correct slots? Maybe its the same in the 205?
