Hi All--

I have a 1998 Acura 2.3CL, original owner. The radio has stopped working. This had happened once before, and I ended up replacing the inside radio fuse located near the driver side kick plate. That lasted for a while, and now the radio again is not turning on. I checked with a volt meter the inside fuse near the kick plate and it was working. I also checked the radio fuse located in the engine compartment with the volt meter and that was also working, but the radio will not turn on. The only potential sign of life is that the red anti-theft light is blinking. Are there anymore fuses that I have missed?? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you pull the radio and check the wires right at the radio? power, ignition, ground.

I have not tried that, is there anything I could check for without pulling the radio??

If you have checked the fuses and they are good then I would make sure your getting power, ground and ignition power at the radio. If all three of those are present and it does not come on 99.9% it's done.

sounds like the stock radio has bit the dust. Either replace it with another one or go aftermarket. I suggest the latter.

Thank you both...
