I have a 2009 Multispace diesel 1.6. The original radio was replaced some years ago with a Sony Stereo which suddenly stopped working. I used a multimeter to confirm that 12.5 volts was being delivered to the final connector and checked the fuse in the radio was ok. No life at all so I bought a low cost Bosskzi radio. This does'nt powere up either so I am guessing the radios are ok and I am missing something in the vehicle. I attached my multimeter to the yellow and black wire terminals and get 12.5 v so I assume that earthing is taking place via the black wire. I also have the aerial plugged in.
I am hoping someone can suggest an aspect I have overlooked.

I tried to check the F4 fuse but even after removing the glove box I could not get at the bottom left hand side fuses. It is really unbelievable that Citroen could feel happy with such a bad design. Even pushing the various wire looms aside there are fuses that are unreachable. I checked all the fuses I could reach and they were ok so I have arranged to have an auto electrician look at it.
