Why is there no sound coming from my JVC KD-G205 speakers?

  The lack of sound from your JVC Car Receiver speakers can stem from several reasons. First, the volume might be set too low; try adjusting it to a higher, more audible level. Second, the connections could be faulty; double-check all cords and connections to ensure they are correctly and securely in place. Finally, the unit's microcomputer might have malfunctioned due to external noise. To resolve this, reset the unit by holding the SEL (select) button and pressing the (standby/on attenuator) button for more than 2 seconds. Note that this will erase the clock setting and preset stations.
