You've probably already checked for this one, but I remember a while back spending an awful long time trying to find a fault on a car stereo only to eventually twig that the illumination lamps were blown in the removeable "security" front and they were required to pass current into the radio to enable it to work properly. The radio thought the security panel was missing and so refused to work!
