Re: help?
What about the fuse on the the back of the radio.
If not the fuse on the radio double check the constant wire if it has 12v through it at all times the ignition 12v only when you turn the key on and make sure you have a good ground check resistance if not sure just run your own ground. You only need these three to turn on the radio.
Did you check all the fuses cause I think clock, cigarette, and domelight fuses also links to the radio. Meter all the fuses make sure that they get 12v on both ends some times the fuses may not look blown to the eye but they are.
