Re: Monsoon stereo won't turn on in 2003 Golf

Hold on here! This is an easy fix and a fairly common problem with the monsoon sound system. You'll need to open the fuse box and pull out the fuse for the stereo. It should be fuse #42. It's either a blue 15 or clear 25 amp - I can't remember. Anyway, pull the fuse out for about 10 seconds and re-insert it (make sure the fuse isn't blown first). Then start up your car. The stereo will work fine.

I think removing the fuse cuts all power to the stereo and triggers the reset, but that's really just a guess. All I know is that 9 times out of 10 this is why a monsoon stereo won't turn on.
