Hi,

Positioning of the earphones is very critical with the autocom system. If they are not centred directly over your ear canal, you will hear b*gger all. Which model Autocom do you have?

Cheers,

Paul

paul, its the super pro avi duo.
like i said,the power light is on but there is absolutely no sound through the headset.not a hiss or anything.can the position of the speakers be that critical?.

Gary,

I have the Super Avi Pro on the FJR. It always takes around 30 seconds or so to 'warm up' before any sounds come through. In use I don't notice this, but you do have to wait.

When fitting mine, I also noticed that it needs a well charged battery, (Or the engine running) or the light comes on, but there is no sound. I'd drained the battery during my 'fiddling' testing connecting a Garmin 2610

it would seem this is apt for my wiring abilities

now got the wiring right and it works brilliantly.
