ok my 75 is a facelift model and I retro fitted the sat nav I had to make a link lead so that I can fit the sat nav to my car on my car there are 4 connectors for the radio on the sat nav there was only one 16 pin connector so take your head unit out and have a look to see how many connectors there are and let me know

And had something similar to this - It turned out the plugs going to the tv unit had badly corroded. Are they covered in something that resembles limescale?

As for the other problems, have you tried the big block connector that goes into the radio module? It might be a loose wire (in my case a purple one). This can come loose and short on something, blowing fuse 22 (small 15amp) in the process.

Hi David. I know this is an old thread but can you remember where the original plug for the stereo is that I need to plug my cd player in to? I know it is down the bottom of the unit behind the air con and the ash tray as I have removed all of that.

If the lead was in place, then there were two places as standard, where the CD changer was installed. First was in the glove box, then second somewhere in the boot. I believe mounted on the boot floor, near side, but not certain on that one. I also think it had to be the correct CD player/changer to work with the MGR system. You cannot just plug any old CD system in. There are better, more modern options, like an adaptor to allow an Iphone, or Iwhatsit to be used instead of a CD.
