Thanks I’ll give that a go
It’s definitely not the telemute wire

Also
I’ve noticed my radio reception seems to be on and off
Not in sync with the sound and off so a separate issue
The radio reception comes in and out and I’ve noticed that the buttons on the steering will light up when I’ve got reception
So now I’m thinking the the 12v signal provided to the radio Ariel also activated the steering button lights
What can cause this to pulse on and off like on for 1 second and then off for about 3 and then repeating
The time is also not setting itself with Rds

Reception issues usually down to damaged aerial cable / plug on the back of the Head Unit cage which happens when the cage has been in and out a few times, this also would account for the RDS clock setting not working.

The feed for the steering wheel controls is from the Headunit hence why they stay on on NCDC equipped cars for 5 or so mins after locking the car. Never seen the steering wheel control illumination have the problem you describe, sounds more like a problem on the loom / plug to the head unit.

Given the multitude of issues you are seeing might it be worth testing the alternator output and checking the earth straps - especially the one at the front of the engine.

Just another thought, when you removed the Bose from this car how did you re-route the outputs? Did you use a none Bose turnaround connector? The switched 12V for the rear audio components is derived from that connector.

Engine was replaced in the car few years back
Car was parked up for a few years
So maybe that’s something I can look into
But battery seems to charge fine and no other electrical issues

The speaker output wires in the loom at the back of the stereo Have a black tubing around them
The Bose units use these 8 wires to send a pre amp signal to the Bose amp
And then the Bose amp sends the amplified signal into the same colour co-ordinated wires in to the speakers
All I did was to couple the wires to the same colours
For the front speakers
And for the rear shelf I connected the the wires direct to the speakers
That’s left me with three wires
Power red
Ground brown
And 12v signal red/white
I just insulated them

Yep it's the red/white wire that powers the aerial amp if I remember correctly.

Got a few problems sorted
First of all the radio reception
I swapped the two red/white wires back of the stereo

Secondly the Earth strap under the car was completely knackered
So replaced that and cleaned up the one near the battery tray
I’m only getting 12.5v whilst car is started
So alternator could be on its way
Although don’t have any starting or charging issues


Sound not cutting out anymore fingers crossed
Still don’t know exactly what caused it


Rds time updates whilst I got it on a radio Channel
When I switch back to to cd changer And leave car it stops updating and falls back until I go back to a Rds station

But that’s not a issue right now I’m glad I got the sound problem resolved , I think

Is anyone willing to help with the connection from ccr2006 to ncdc2013 ... I have ccr2006 and mid screen and I managed to find ncdc2013 and cid screen ... can anyone help with installation and switching wires and adding? Not sure what to do. No need for navigation. In my country that don't work so I only want to use bc and music nothing else.
