It's an Alfa Romeo 159 which is working in CAN... I have the good interface for Alfa & Pioneer... Thanks

maybe the car has factory in-line amplifiers.

Maybe you need to hook up Remote amp turn-on wire?

That is exactly what I was thinking. Maybe hook up a cheap external speaker to the output wires to test if it is the radio or the car that is the problem.

Thanks guys... However, before this F310BT, I had installed in the same car, an AVIC-D3 and there was no problem with sound... The setup was the same (harness) and it worked good! I hope this is not a head unit problem!

If it is a amp turn on issue, I think there is a setting on the radio for the accessory wire for "Power" or "Antenna" mode.

Hi guys,

Just looking about my problem, and you drive me in the right direction! The amp wire (from the car) wasn't connected to the head unit remote!!! Just have connected them and works fine!!! WHAT A BEASTLY SOUND!!!! lol

Thanks again for your help!!!

A+++
