My Bose radio died a few years ago and I'm just getting around to replacing it with a radio / cd player / mp3 player that I bought at Wal-Mart this morning, Virtual Reality Sound VR3 CD Player.
I bought the wiring adaptor and the converter for speaker level to line level and hooked everything up. But the radio won't come on. I know there's switched power since I can turn on the amps and I can play music via my mp3 player directly.
I'm thinking that the problem might be with the ground. My questions are:
1 - Will the lack of ground prevent the radio from powering up? 2 - If I need to find a ground where's the best place? I tried connecting to the screw that held the old radio in place and the outside of the cigarette lighter.Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks, Joe
