missing DAB radio

Is there more to this story?
Have you recently had any electrical work done on the car?
My first guess is that the radio module has been unplugged, the wire damaged, or the fuse has blown.
I don't have DAB radio, so don't know where it is installed, however, in mine, there is an amplifier under the driver's seat.

Hi there,
Thank you for the reply.
I can't actually remember when the DAB option disappeared but I know that it was gone after I switched the engine on to go somewhere. We haven't had any electrical work done on it and there wasn't anything significant to suggest something was tampered with .... It just disappeared!
If iit was a fuse, would it not effected the whole radio?

I have to answer that with a resounding "I don't know".
My car has all the radio/CD/SD card/bluetooth options, but no DAB radio.
As far as I know, DAB radio was not available in my model, in Australia.
There are different ways Mitsubishi could achieve that kind of flexibility.
1. Different head units.
2. Different radio modules.
3. Standard radio module with a DAB radio add on (separate unit).
I've just had a quick look on ebay and found this:
https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/387567306402?_skw=outlander+DAB+radio+module&epid=9014172341
That suggests it is a separate module for DAB, and it could easily have a separate fuse.
Having said that. I've poured over the wiring diagrams for my car, and cannot find a separate fuse.
The MMCS unit does seem to be served by multiple fuses though, and I have no idea why.
I'd suggest seeing if you can find that unit in the car, and check connections/wires leading to that unit.
Similarly, have a look in the fuse boxes and see if you can find any blown fuses.
(Continuity tests across the fuse with a multimeter/continuity tester.)
