Is the volume turned up?
Which mode is it set too? (radio, BT, FM, AM Weather, etc)
Speaker wires connected to head unit?
Speakers wires connected to the speakers?
Check fuses?

There won't be. Fuse to the radio only.
I would make sure the speakers are hooked up and the radio is set to FM (for testing).
Did install anything?
Is there an amp with your system?
Did it ever work? When did it work last?

Look behind the radio and locate the red wire. There should be an in-line fuse (typically it's a glass fuse in a black cylindrical cylinder). Twist in to open and inspect the fuse.
Does everything else (electrically) work okay?

I had a similar problem, eventually. The head unit had power, but no sound through the speakers. Finally figured out that I had run the house battery too low and it couldn’t power the amps. The stereo was powered by the start battery, so it was still functioning.
Maybe unrelated, but something to check.
