Where is the amplifier for the stereo? - 2001 Chrysler LHS

There are a few potential reasons why your stereo may not be turning on. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Check that the stereo is properly plugged into a power outlet and that the outlet is functioning properly.
2. Make sure that the stereo's power switch is in the "on" position.
3. Check that the stereo is properly connected to all other components, such as speakers or a receiver.
4. Ensure that the volume is not turned all the way down or the mute function is not activated.
5. If the stereo has a built-in amplifier, check the amplifier's power supply and fuses.
6. If none of the above steps work, you may want to consult the user manual or contact the manufacturer for further assistance

Determining the Cause of the Problem Let's assume our system has a head unit, a crossover, a two channel amplifier and two door speakers with only the right speaker working (the left speaker is not working). If the door speakers are behind the door panels then we want to make sure the speaker is the problem before removing the panel. We'll work backwards starting with the amplifier and ending at the head unit. Testing for a Speaker Problem With the vehicle and the stereo turned off disconnect the speaker wires for both the left and right speakers at the amplifier. Now connect the left speaker to the right amplifier output (which we know works). Turn on the stereo system and make sure the balance is set to the middle position.If the speaker still doesn't work then the problem is somewhere between the amplifier and the speaker Testing for an Amplifier Problem Now we'll need to see if the amplifier channel is bad. Put the left speaker back on the left amplifier channel and the right speaker on the right amplifier channel. This returns the speaker wiring to its original configuration. Again, with the vehicle and stereo off unplug the RCA cables from the amplifier's input and switch them so the left cable is in the right input and vice versa. Turn on the stereo system. Testing for an RCA Cable Problem For any intermediate components between the amplifier and the head unit follow these steps for each one. We only have a crossover so we'll just do this once. Begin by testing the RCA cables between the intermediate component and the amplifier. Unplug both RCA cables from the intermediate component's output. Now plug the working channel's RCA cable into the non-working side of the crossover. In our case the working channel is the right so plug the right RCA cable from the amplifier into the left side of the crossover. Turn on the stereo system.
If the right channel continues to work then you know the problem is in the RCA cables between the amp and the crossover. esting for a Crossover or Equalizer Problem At the input of the intermediate component (in our case the crossover) flip the RCA cables around (left to right input and vice versa). Turn on the stereo system.
If the right channel continues to work and the left channel continues to not work then you know the problem is in the intermediate component. Replace or repair this component.
If the problem is now in the right speaker and the left speaker works then the problem lies before the crossover. Turn off the stereo system and return the RCA cables to their normal places.
Testing for a Head Unit or RCA Cable Problem Pull out the head unit from the dash so you can access the RCA cables. Unplug both RCA cables from the head unit. Do not disconnect any other wiring. Plug the right RCA cable into the left channel of the head unit. Turn on the stereo system.

Unless it was an add on option(External High power amplifier).. the stereo's amplifier is usually part of the main radio unit.

Hello! There are two options in stereo for your vehicle; Base Radio and Premium sound...That is no amplifier with radio and with an Amplifier/CD player for Premium...Which do you have? Also, what make and model are you installing?

the chimes are amplified through the stereo.if one amplifier ic is blown in the stereo,the result is what you have.you need to repair the output ic in the deck or replace it.

What you are hearing is ground loop interference. If you have an aftermarket headunit/amplifier this is a common occurrence. A ground loop isolator in line with the low level amplifier inputs should solve the problem. Otherwise, it may be a malfunction of the stock cd unit or amplifier. BMW used a balanced input on some of the stock amplifiers, which would make ground loop interference all but impossible.
