I just bought a 2001 Audi A4 2.8 and the radio does not work.

I checked the fuse box and there is no fuse in #37. Bought a fuse for it and there is no metal to hold the fuse in place like the other fuse slots.

Any ideas? Solutions?

 

i dont have a fuse pinout in front of me but are you sure #37 goes to the radio? the radio also have a 5A fuse on the back of it that sometimes goes out. its a PITA because you have to take the radio out to get to it.

 

I was mistaken its #43 that is missing not #37.

#37 goes to Radio/Telephone
#43 goes to Radio(A6)

I started to take the radio out but got stuck at a certain point. I am going to search for taking the radio out real fast.

If anyone has a certain way to do it let me know.

 

Going to take the head unit out tomorrow and check the fuse in the back of it and all the wiring in the back.

Is there anything else I should check while im back there?
