Citroen Xsara Picasso radio no sound

Car: Citroen Xsara Picasso
Variant: 1.6 Manual Petrol
Model Year: 2003
Categories: Electrics, ECU, Warnings & Lights
Help, My radio in my picasso has stopped producing any sounds. All the
functions of the radio are working, seen from the dash, switch on, change
from radio to CD, change volume etc. Just no sound from speakers. Have tried another radio but still the same. Is there an external amplifier for the radio output? Any ideas? All help greatly appreciated.

Dug this out , and shows a fuse in the engine compartment for
" 13 15 A Sound signal "

Hi All, Problem is solved! Found that the speaker wires in the drivers door were shorted together as they had got caught up in the window mechanism. Fortunately when this happens the radio seems shut down it's output stage rather than letting it self destruct. Many thanks to all help received.
