Just picked her up today- a 2005 Titanium Gray RX8 and I LOVE IT. I can see why there are so many rotary converts- the car is incredible! So I thought I'd finally register and stop lurking these boards and say what's up I'll post pictures as soon as I can get a hold of a digicam... So, now all I need is a couple hundred more miles to get the car autocross-ready (hahaha B stock, here I come...)
So ya, thought I'd say hello and such- great forum by the way!

Did you turn it on? Is the volume up? Is anything playing? just to state the obvious

Welcome to the forum.

Check your manual for instructions on the stereo ;)

Well ya it's on, shows the CD playing or radio station, etc. and I've cranked the volume all the way and back, made sure it wasn't muted...

Based on what you have said about the low miles I would assume you bought it new from a dealer, see if they can help you with the radio volume, unless you figured it out from the manual already.

that is strange to have it not muted and volume cranked but no output. Good luck with that and let us know what ends up fixing it.

I'm starting to think it's just not plugged in...

Maybe check to make sure you haven't hit the mute button on the steering wheel?

Congrats!

Right no mute button, oh well I just puttered around town for 34 miles today (94 miles in two days and counting) and I didn't really miss the radio much at all!

On the '04 if you turn the volume up and it had been muted it unmutes.

Another thing to check is the rear amp connections. If the sound system is on for a while the amp should feel warm.

The dealer should be able to remedy the problem.
