Hi all , I have a bit of an issue,and I hope someone who knows more than me can help , basically I bought my girlfriend a 308cc ,it is a 2009 and I still the gt100 if that matters, it has JBL badged speakers on the door ,and an rd4 head unit which simply says MP3 on the face ., and the last 8 of her vin are 9so37096.
Now that is all out of the way , my issue is I wanted to install Bluetooth so I know that she is able to have a bit of a safer journey ,and also so she can stream music from her phone , I bought and installed one of the connects2 adaptors to begin with ,and had the changer port enabled ,which was absolutely appalling sound quality .
So decided to replace the head unit ,and bought a Kenwood Bluetooth head unit,along with the connects2 fascia,reverse sensor and steering control adaptor,and also the Kenwood patch lead and fakra adaptor .
Installed all this on Friday , only to find hat I have absolutely no sound, it is coming from the head unit as I connected a speaker directly to the head unit,and that plays fine, spoke to the audio shop I bought the adaptors from who said that the car has a amplifier fitted from factory ,and simply to find the switched 12v feed from the Peugeot harness, and connect the remote switching from the head unit,and it should be all good.but sadly it isn't .
I spent a merry hour , checking and identifying all the wires , and was not able to find one that seemed right .
So my question for all the smart people , if you could shine a light on any ideas it would be great , is,does her car have an amplifier ? , and any ideas where it could be hidden ? As I have read about it being behind the glove box,and the rear wheel arch,but hoping someone's could give me a definite ,and any ideas on how to make this all work ? As would really like to get it up and running properly , but have read through all 98 pages of the stereo section and no one at all seems to have raised this question,so again,thankyou for suffering through this ,and hopefully someone can help, many thanks Dennis .
