Hi guys, 

i just purchased a new android stereo for my 2011 mk2.5 Focus. All works great, steering wheel controls, power etc however it won’t play any sound. Has anyone encountered this error or know how to fix it?

thanks!

 

Stupid question but it has to be asked, have you checked that the system is not on 'Mute' ?

Had to be asked lol yea I have checked the system settings and swapped with the original radio and sound works on there. Everything else works fine which is odd

It is possible you might just have a duff unit. Is there another car you could try it in ?

I would like to upgrade the stereo in my daughters 2010 Kuga for something like the android unit you have. How much did you pay for it and did you buy it on eBay?

What have you tried just radio or any other source?

Yea it’s more than likely the unit, I tried an old Sony stereo which worked. I got that one used off eBay and have now returned. Just ordered this one which was the same model https://www.onbuy.com/gb/dab-car-stereo-satnav-dvb-t-ipod-bt-ford-focus-cs-max-mondeo-galaxy~c11578~p25145113/

Looked good when it was installed and was springy when using it, so hopefully be a decent sound too. They are definitely good for the price

I would try resetting the unit with a pin, I had a similar issue and did so and the sound is now working fine...
