    Hi All,

    Over the weekend i rewired the stereo, as it was on a perm live so would not switch off with ignition, the previous owner had done a bit of a hatchet job lots of chop blocks grrrr, but I was able to find a switched live via my trusty multimeter. with the car stationary all is good turns on and off as it should, but when driving the stereo cuts out when i go over 40mph, then will come back on when i am at a slower speed, its really quite odd.
    I've gone back thru the wiring and there are no loose wires i can find, so i'm at a loss. Anyone had similar problems or has an idea as to what is wrong?

    Still doing the cut off, but it happens at 45mph in any gear! will remain off until under that speed and a wait of about 1 minute!

    I've wired the stereo back to how it was, just interested in what is causing it.

    The wire in question is white with a blue stripe.

    wouldn't be surprised if its the speed sensor wire? I think the diesel judderers snip the white/blue vss wire to help with their problem..
