Just joined Merlin from New York for now, moving to Colorado in July. I have a 2008 Anv. Road King
Put new battery in and now my I get no sound from the speaker.any ideas why?

 

What kind of a sound system are you using?

Pictures? Wiring diagrams?

 

it is just a set of jbl speakers that i plug my i pod into. what or how it works no idea. i put a new battery in thats all i did. checked the fuses do not know.

 

As it is a Road King I would suggest posting pictures of what you have (specific pictures). Never had tunes on a Road King. Other bikes yeah.

 

If its a JBL speaker then its not original to the bike.
Does the ipod work with headphones? If yes then try a different cable between the ipod and speaker. If that doesn't do it then, assuming you installed the new battery correctly, it might be time for a new speaker.

 

We're going to have to know what system you have. If it's just speakers with no amp, your iPod isn't going to be able to drive it.

 

An ipod can't drive a speaker larger than an earbud without some type of audio amp, which means a power source for said amp. So you probably either have an audio amp needing 12v dc or you have powered speakers needing 12v dc. Its very possible that when changing the battery a power wire to the amp or speakers was left unconnected.

 

Do a reset on your pod and try it on something else car stereo what ever.
Make sure it works.
Make sure your on Aux?

 

Turn the volume up.
