Hi everyone, Ive recently bought a 986 (in the UK) and I have a few small jobs to to, and rather cleverly managed to add an extra one today! I connected up a Sony stereo using the ISO to Sony adaptor and it worked straight away. Instead of being satisfied with that and moving on to other jobs I decided to reconnect the CD multi changer that had been disconnected by the previous owner...you can see where this is going. Sure enough, now I have no power to the stereo. The CD changer didnt power up and I suspect has blown a fuse somewhere along the way. Everything else seems to be working fine but there is no power on the ISO cable.
I have been through all the fuses in the footwell but there are all fine (continuity tested). Are there any other fuses I should check or can anyone suggest what else I need to look at? Many thanks.
