New-to-us 2000 Cat 320, learning something new each time out....
We're puzzled about the stereo system - a Jensen MCDA1. It's clear that we're getting a strong signal, based on the signal strength indicator on the remote. But: we get no output from any of the bands - AM/FM/Wx or CD. Well, almost no output. When we push the "band" button, the speakers will emit a short 'beep.' But otherwise....silence. No static... nada.
I figure that when we take it out for the winter in about a month, this is going to be one of my off-season projects. The question is: considering that I'm no electrician or audio engineer, is there something obvious that i'm just missing? I've checked all of the wiring harness that i can get to without removing panels, and replaced the fuse. Is this old Jensen just dead and needs to be replaced?
