I have come across a rather annoying problem while trying to help my
brother get the stereo working in his '91. It has what appears to be a
GenII JBL or Premium deck installed, but no sound what so ever. His
speakers have the JBL emblems on them, as well as the amps, so I know it is
JBL. I've never had to troubleshoot a JBL system before, so maybe someone
else on the list has some suggestions.
Is there a difference between the GenI and GenII decks? Also, how do
you tell apart JBL from Premium? I want to make sure everything is hooked
up properly and the deck supports JBL. Also, are there any known issues
with the JBL amps or wiring in the '91's? I will end up troubleshooting the
problem eventually, but if it's something simple I'd like to find out now.
For that matter can anyone tell me how the fuses work for the JBL in the
GenI? I'm guessing there could be a separate fuse for the amps, but I don't
know.
