'99 1/2 Radio Question

jimc00 · #1 (**permalink**) 10-05-2008, 05:39 PM

I removed our sony radio to pull codes. When I replaced it, it worked for one day then it wouldn't turn on. I put in the stock radio and it was dead too.

I checked the connector and found 12 volts. Both radios have good fuses.

What next???

Did you check the ground?

"Both radios have good fuses". I assume you mean internal fuses inside of the radios. Did you check for secondary a fuse?

I verified that there is a working hot and ground on connector.

I also checked the fuses on the left side of the dash - all are OK.

I don't know if there is another wire in the 30 or so that connect to the radio that 'enables' the radio.
