Radio and Clock not working Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!

<< < (3/3)

Elmo:
Electrics in a serviceable condition work when volts are applied.
If the clock and radio have worked however briefly then you can forget fuses.

Look for:

Bad earth connections
Dodgy connections to clock/radio/both (they both have a 12V "always on" feed which may be shared, and I bet they share an earth)
Dry solder joints
Worn/scarred insulation on wires causing shorts or voltage drops to earth.
Worn multiplug connectors - or badly connected ones

Unfortunately a problem like this has no easy diagnosis - clean and refit the earths, chase the power wires back to a known good source and check EVERYTHING along the way.

Disco Bristol:
will it not work if the earth is cut? (Not that it is)

Three guesses given on that one

Disco Bristol:
