cbrsilv15 Posted March 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 I finally put in the z2 today, and there are some probs. I had everything in good, but it wasn't bypassed because I didn't put in the update cd. I pushed the reset button on it, and now there is no sound. I have reset is several times, took off the grounded wires, and looked at EVERY setting!! I cannot figure it out. After I put in the cd and updated it, the bypass works great now, but I have NO SOUND!! Speakers still put out voltage, and factory radio still works. Does anyone have a clue? I wanted to call Pioneer, but they are only mon-fri... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_forma Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 go into your sound setting and see where they are set, also go over all system settings and everything as well. You prob have them turned off somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrsilv15 Posted March 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 I have checked every setting on the unit. I read in other posts from other websites about all the amplified/non amped wire harnesses. This is just the regular stereo with no amplifiers, and I am running the Metra GMRC01 harness. I checked every setting for a "mute" somwhere, but everything is turned up. I just don't get how the sound worked, and when I reset it, it stopped. I am thinking about trying a different harness and see if that one stopped. It was used already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_forma Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 make sure the pins didn't pull out of the harness on the back of the z2 where you hooked into Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrsilv15 Posted March 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 That pin was in there nice and tight. I am gonna take it out and disconnect a speaker and add a tweeter directly off the HU. That should let me know if it is the Z2 or the harness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrsilv15 Posted March 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 Well, I tried a different harness, and it does the same thing. I also tried hooking up a tweeter directly off the HU, and nothing. I have to call Pioneer tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_forma Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 can you try to uninstall the update you did and see if it works then? There should be a way to do that, maybe it was a bad update Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrsilv15 Posted March 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 It doesn't have anything on there to delete any updates from the hard drive. Just the songs that are copied there. It has to be something really stupid, because I have tried EVERYTHING else.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrsilv15 Posted March 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Well, after numerous tests and countless hours troubleshooting, I have a fried unit. I had 0 volts on the speaker leads on the back of the HU. I had to send it out for repairs today. I will see if they can fix the problem....
