Default Radio, Power mirrors not working.

Not sure what the issue is. I checked the related fuses and they're all good. (I checked Radio no1 in the engine bay, and Radio no2/multi vision/audio/multi information display/remote mirrors in the kick panel (No 18)

Interior fuse box... (cheers to Dave Hart for finding these, which are apparently somewhere in the Soarer Bible)

1 - Electric Mirrors 20A
2 - Air Suspension 20A
3 - Alternator 7.5A
4 - Audio/Multivision (EMV)/Auto Air Con/Multi Info Display/Lights. 7.5A
5 - Width/plate/tail/brake lights. 15A

11 - Meter/warning & indication lights. 10A
12 - Auto drive/EFI & ECT computers. 7.5A
13 - Brake light/shift lock/computer. 15A
14 - Air bag warning light/con light/computer. 15A

The locations in the panel are as in the diagram. The numbers in brackets correspond to the numbers above.
I have continuity at the radio (not stock, its a cheap Panasonic deck that came with the car) and cigarette lighter (I can still charge stuff, but the actual lighter won't stay depressed), but not at the power mirror plug.

If anyone has any ideas, or knows what the issue is, please help out. Thanks!

have you checked power without that radio, IE trying a stock one? Also have you checked the ground as well?


Sounds like two unrelated issues.

I don't have a stock one to try. Even then, I wouldn't even know how to start hooking it up. I don't know anything about radio installs or anything. The harness looks to be modded a bit too.

I haven't checked the ground, but I was thinking this might be the issue. I'm not too sure where it is though.
