Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Re: CCRT700 / Bose Problem! Help!!

« on: 27 November 2008, 00:58:45 »

I've checked the fuse and it its fine. Is there supposed to be any lights on the amp when it is running? Does anyone know what the wires that have been cut are for? I think the blue/brown wire is a speaker wire and the thin red/white cable might be a live of some sort. I can get the pin numbers that they are connected to if anyone has a wiring diagram.

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / CCRT700 / Bose Problem! Help!!

« on: 25 November 2008, 23:15:06 »

Hi, I have recently bought a 1999 omega elite 3.0. It didn't come with a head unit, but a bose amp and speaker system were still installed. After posting on this forum, i found the best option was a ccrt700, as this was the original model from the car. I have managed to find one on ebay, and i recieved it this morning. I went straight out to the car and fitted it, entered the security code and it scanned for stations. I thought all was well until i actually turned the volume up and realized i had no sound. The volume doesn't actually display when i move the multifunction wheel or press the buttons on the steering wheel. Should it? I took the stereo back out and noticed that somebody has obviously been hacking at the wires in the past (Probably to try and fit another head unit), although many wires have been rejoined the way they should be (from the looks of things), there are two wires that are not connected at all, a thin red & white wire (there is also a thicker one, but that is connected), and a brown & blue wire that is also not connected. Without these joined, the stereo powers up fine, and works on the display and the steering wheel controls work (other than the volume problem described earlier). I have tried re-joining these wires, but it has made no difference, I still have no sound... :-( Is there supposed to be a light on the bose amp if its working, and does it control all of the speakers in the car?

Can anybody please help???


Thanks in Advance,

Darkers..

Thanks. I may be interested if i can't find a fully working one. how much would you be asking? If i did want to use a different head unit, is there any adaptor available to still be able to use the bose amp and speakers, even if it meant losing the display and steering controls?

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Omega Bose System with amp, but no stereo! HELP!

I have recently bought a 1998 Omega Elite. It didn't have a head unit fitted when i bought it. It has bose speakers and a bose amp, and from looking through the manuals, i can see it originally came with a phillips ccrt 700 head unit. I don't know if it came with a cd shuttle unit. Is there any other head units that will work with this system or does anyone have one of these units for sale? I have tried ebay but the only one on there is broken.

Many Thanks,

Darkers
