Got a Focus here which was behaving and one day the stereo ceased to produce noise. It illuminates and plays and says it's doing it's job but there is no sound output at all.

Anybody aware of anything obvious before I pop the deck out as I know the lass doesn't have the code.

Cheers in advance

Not sure of the fault, but if you lose the code drop me a PM with the serial NO starting with "M" and ill sort the code out for you

Connections or amps fubar'd

CheeRS mate, may very well take you up on that.

This was my train of thought but thought it was worth asking in case there was anything daft they were prone to doing

They're prone to just stopping working like that! I've had two die on me. It's highly doubtful that the speaker connectors have come undone, unless you've been fiddling around behind there. On mine the chief culprit was the amp (or some internal connection) and the cost of a replacement one off eBay was less than the cost of getting it fixed. People seem happy to buy broken ones, so could be worth selling yours on and getting a new one - or get a cheap single DIN headunit which plays MP3s (so you can play burnt CDs) and a fascia adapter to make it fit!

Kind of backs up others comments and my own initial thinking. Think she has a stereo in her old car so I've offered to swap them over for her already.

yea connections are unlikely, but it does happen, best to check before shelling out for a new one.
