Fitting aftermarket Stereo to Grand Voyager
As my OEM stereo on my Voyager has recently decided to start to fail
( the CD player does not work and the radio need to be retuned each time)
I decided to fit a aftermarket stereo. I have treated myself to a decent sat nav/ entertainment system, mistakenly I thought this would be easy,
I purchased a suitable ISO adapter and a facia adaptor,
I have managed to fit thee stereo but am stuck with 2 problems
1. I have all the lights on but no sound, I did get the radio to play if I plug the original stereo on with the ignition on then swap the stereo without switching of the ignition, once the ignition is switched off, no sound again
I found lot of information about other chyslers having amplifed speakers
has anyone dealt with this issue? there is a link on youtube showing a wire being passed all the way to a relay in the fuse box but this is for a american Town and country, is there a easier solution?
2. does anyone know what The aerial socket is, is it a Fakra connection, it looks like it but want to make sure before a buying it
I look forward to any advice i have a all singing all dancing clarion system coming from Amazon in the next few days and would like to fit it asap

If you do have the amp fitted, then you will have to run new wiring from the radio to the amp and bypass the amp.
I thought I had posted details for it at some point in the past, but can't seem to find it now

The Amp is behind the trim panel by the rear seats on the drivers side.
The factory stereo provides a left and right audio to the amp and the amp then splits that front and rear. It's a data connection from the stereo to the amp that controls the fade/balance.
You'll need to run 2 additional pairs from the new stereo to the amp and join them onto say the rear speakers and use the exisitng wires to join to the front speakers.
The wiring diagrams https://drive.google.com/folderview?...0k&usp=sharing will show you what wire goes to what speaker.
