I had the radio on when I was reconnecting and when I offered it to the door it kept cutting out, with a bit of fiddling it is fitted and working ok.

What I don't understand is why it would do this the connections look clean and sound.
More than likely shorting out on the door when you were refitting, consider yourself lucky you didn't take the amplifier out.

don't think it could have shorted on the door i left the housing in place and just remove speaker (4 torx bolts)

would it be straight forward to try my head unit in another (bose equipped i assume) car to check if it's head unit or speakers?

Yes, you can plug it into another BOSE equipped car (you`ll need the code) but unlikley to be head unit that is at fault. Not common for Amp to go either.

After all my fannying about i've discovered today that the only thing that actually "drops out" is radio.
Cd and mp3 (via tape adapter) are fine.

Therefore I assume there is a poor connection on the aerial, before I take h/u out is there a common failure point?

Common faults

Centre pin in angled connector at rear of cage is prime suspect, as is a break in the cable centre core a few inches back from that.

Next is the connections from the aerial amp to the screen

Next would be dodgy connector in the kickwell - (not so common to fail that one)

finally solved it. It was the actual aerial mast that was snapped within the rubber flexible part (estate) so not visible. Cheers for the help.
