Anyone had any problems with JVC and there Citroen?
My Head unit and Changer are JVC worked fine in a rover, Peugeot, Polo but it seriously wont work in a Xantia or XM?
Any ideas?

Nothing works, no lights, no sound, no nothing.

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.
