Still no audio. I do hear a very faint pop when I turn on the radio that makes me think the amp is turning on. I checked power, ground, remote turn on are all OK.
The MID does not have analog outputs. But the amp has analog inputs. What component makes that conversion? Where is it located? I think that may be faulty. I do have an o-scope so I will verify analog input signal is reaching the amp.
Thanks.

On a serious note I haven't really worked on the stock stereos but, I'm pretty sure there are some tests and some diagnostics available with in my software. That being said, I have software and could try if you want. It might point you in the right direction. Or we could just code your X and forget about the stereo

. I'm in Oregon City and love to tinker.
