The head unit seems empty inside and it doesn't seem to turn on?

It's built for light weight so it feels really light. Would you specifically elaborate how it does not turn on?

Like other have said here, the head unit is light. The directions are pretty spot on if you're hooking it up yourself, so there's not much room for error. Each wire is labeled as to what it controls. If you're not getting power, and you've already pressed the on button, then it must be a wiring problem or defective unit. Hope that helps!

Theres not much to the head unit its pretty light, make sure your power,memory,and ground wires are hooked up. when they are hooked up and the key is on the display will be dim but on until you turn on the unit. if it wont turn on send it back.

When I installed this radio it didn't work at first, I later found out that I just needed to replace a fuse! Check your owners manual as to where the "Radio Fuse" is in your car. Then check it in your vehicle, if the wire inside the fuse is a solid line then its not the fuse. However if it is broken in the middle than you just need to replace the fuse and it should work perfectly. My car calls for a "4 amp fuse" but I put in a "5 amp fuse" so it wouldn't blow because of little power fluctuations in my car. Hope I helped!

No hum. I've owned this unit for over six months. All outputs, including the headphones, have been dead silent. Have you checked for ground loops? -John

Swap/verify headphones, check all things and visually inspect anything you can including wiring or soldering or anything that would look out of place or worse, missing. Then make sure all levels are turned up. None of that works yours is broke.

Check all your inputs at the amp and at your head unit if they are good it's a bad amp. Ask for a replacement. Or get your money back. I've had two of these and the first one was Doa the second worked but was absolutely terrible. Find something better.

it all plugs into the back of the headunit There are no plugs on the front side of the unit.

Check the settings of the one not working. The IR might be on for the head phones or the FM station might be on to hear on the cars speakers instead.

Possibly have inadequate power source or wiring? Is this in a vehicle or being used as a base radio?

Make sure the input and output are correct. If it still doesn't work then it's the power source. Try a different outlet.

It has to be a loose wire. Check your ground wire. Make sure all connections from the head unit to the amp is secure as well. also might be another dumb question but is the sub mounted correctly? ie. have enough room

I do not see anything on the unit for plugging in anything other than the charge/upload and external speakers

It's the simplest solution if you want to keep the factory head unit. The power turn on wire works fine, and the sound is quite good actually.

I would try to contact Creative with this issue and try to have the remote replaced. What I assume is your problem is the fact that the system may not be able to sense when you try turning on the sound with the remote. The remote does not seem to have a switch inside of it that cuts the power on and off, and instead they seem to use a system where the device senses when the volume has been turned down all the way. Whatever system is sensing this may have broken and as a result the system will not power on. If it is in the remote itself, replacing it should help. If it is inside the subwoofer, I'm not sure it will help you much. Good luck. I would try to contact Creative with this issue and try to have the remote replaced.

Just plug in the power adaptor, put in a disc and turn on. Other features require reading the manual and plugging things in and setting menus.

That was the same issue I seem to have. Nothing worked when I plugged in to it.

Is it plugged in when you boot it up? I believe you can also reset it by hitting the power button and volume + at the same time and hold for at least 10 seconds. If that does not work... send it back.

Another possibility is that the head unit needs to be set to AUX or iPod function, but then again my head unit has that listed on the home display.

there is a switch in the back of the unit if no sound and you have selected cd on the front flip the switch that should work
