Aftermarket stereo fuse location

I believe i blew my stereo fuse as it will not turn on, and i did check to see if the wires were providing power (which they werent) and i cannot locate the fuse. Any tips will be appreciated...i checked both fuse boxes and neither had a "stereo fuse" unless it is called something different.

If its a blown fuse in fuse box its probably a 15amp. Sometimes radio is tied in with things like dome light, lighter or horn.

Often, aftermarket units will have a separate fuse in the power supply line in the center console or dashboard.
To check, pull out the stereo (you may need to buy a couple of cheap "DIN removal tools", though you can sometimes fake it with a couple of small screwdrivers) and examine the wiring.
If the fuse did blow, the next question is why, so look for any wires that have come loose and are contacting things they shouldn't.

SOURCE: CAR STEREO AND CLOCK DONT WORK, LOCATION OF FUSE 25

You are correct on checking the sterio, just 12+ and ground to see if it powers up. Fuse 25, in your fuse box should be numbered. If not, just pull them one at a time to see which one got fried.

SOURCE: I am such a girl.

drivers side under the dash under a cover.or on the side of the dash behind the driver side door under a cover( Covers just pop off) tricky if youve never seeen one before. hope this helps. changing the bulbs is easy too. once you locate the other side of the brake lights in the trunk you just twist the connector and the bulb and socket will pop out. make sure you pull out the right bulbs. pull them out then try the brake if they dont work you know thats the bulbs. but yes check your fuses first.

SOURCE: cruise control will only engage

I don't usually say this but. Have a mechanic check it out.. Cruse control could be very dangerous if it is not working properly. If all the safety fetchers are not working it could get stuck on..

Why does my ignition fuse (40) keep blowing on my 2002 gmc Savana 2500?

I had an older gmc s15. After installing a aftermarket stereo it did the same thing. Believe it or not it ended up being the headlight dimmer Switch had gone bad and was already pulling alot of juice. The new stereo just made it trip and blow the fuse alot faster.

Why wont radio turn off?

This often happens when people diy aftermarket stereo installation. Aftermarket stereos require both accessory and hot wires, while many auto wiring harnesses provide only hot leads. You must add an accessory wire from the fuse box to the stereo to prevent the battery from draining. If you are up to doing that, I can provide instructions.

Tail lights

Consider what you have changed when stereo was installed. Using existing wiring is not like it used to be. The electronics has changed that. Going from fuse block is not a good thing.
Try undoing and examining wiring for damage and consider routing from battery. Cables are available for extra wiring from the battery.

2003 Mitsubishi lancer es

I has this problem after i had recently changed out the stereo. Chech to see if the illumination wire that runs to the stereo is hooked up correctly. If you have an aftermarket stereo you may need to ground it to the body of the car.

I believe that the fuse is located in the engine compartment but check your car manual to find the exact location.
