987 Gen II Something wrong with sound head unit?
Discussion
Hi Guys
Over the winter my 987 Gen II had a complete flat battery. I have since reconditioned/charged (CTEK) it and all is good.
However I have no sound from the radio/cd. It has the Bose sound system.
Everything works on the display, but there is no sound.
Can someone guide me on fault finding please?
Happened after the dead battery so might something need a reboot?
Thanks

An easier question:
Where is the amp on a Bose sound system in a 987 gen II?
Anyone know?
Thanks

Take a look at this post. It may help. https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=12...Where is the amp on a Bose sound system in a 987 gen II?

Just thought I should close this thread off with the conclusion.
The Bose amp was under the driver's seat and had been immersed in water!
The roof had leaked at some point.
Porsche decided the safest place to put a box of expensive electronics is in a sump on the floor of a soft top - no guessing where any water collects.
I am going to fit the replacement above the sump rather than in it.
Very hard to find a replacement s/h amp, but eventually found one in the USA and it is on its way over.
The sound of the engine is much better than anything on the radio anyway :-)
