Default Issue with pioneer unit in C5

Hello

the C5 I purchased last year came with a pioneer after market radio installed. I want to upgrade the radio unit so I bought a new pioneer 1din unit with exactly the same connections as the old unit. I though it would be a piece of cake to switch both units but unfortunately I have no sound coming from the speakers with the new unit. How come this is possible. Same brand unit, same connections ???

What models of Pioneer units do you have ? Some of their harnesses differ.

Make sure the HU is not on mute or have some feature where the speakers are tuned off as well.
