As it says in the title, I've fitted a radio to the Ibiza but there's nothing happening. Radio was good five minutes ago in Margarets TF so I'm assuming it's the Seat.

What fuse should I be checking? Haynes manual assays f2 but I don't know what one that is, lol

This has been covered to death if you just use the search function - you will then find out that there are 2 fuses........................

Swapped out the five amp fuse (have to admit I swapped the wrong one last time as the Haynes manual shows the fuse box in mirror image! Doh)

CD player started working just fine but no radio. Think I need to check the aerial link.
When I switch of the car the radio keeps going until I pull the key out of the ignition but then it's like all power goes as it appears to reset completely. I reckon I need to swap the 20 amp fuse as well but it's too cold tonight to go back out. CD player well do her for now, lol

Thanks to everyone who helped point me in the right direction, if only I'd heeded all your advice I'd have changed both fuses and be a warm hero :)
