This may be stating the obvious, but are you sure you connected it to a 12v source and a good earth ? Some Citroen wiring defies all logic; you get live black wires, green earth wires, all sorts. Check with a voltmeter or testbulb.

All sorted now. JVC Car stereos have 2 live wires which both must be connected before the Unit will work.
