Just put another new (to me) dash into my civic. Everything worked fine before hand, but now I have a few issues. Thought I'd ask before I dived up under the dash again. My back still hurts from this weekend...

I reused the same dash harness from my last dash, as the one I just put in was missing one. Yet I still have some issues:

1. Clock will not hold a time. Basically it resets to 1:00 every time I turn the car on and off. Also, the clock backlighting is not near as bright.

2. Rear defroster will not come on. Worked fine before, and harness is hooked up. Now I get nothing.

3. SRS light is on, and horn doesn't work. I think I have a loose connection on my steering column... Any tips?


Finally, I am selling the car. So I removed my aftermarket CD player and put in the tape deck from my old Acura. Unfortunately I dont have the code for it. There also seems to be a sticker missing from the bottom of the deck. Im thinking this is where the serial number would be to look up the code at the dealer. Am I **** out of luck?

 

Did you plug everything back into the fuse box? check the back-up fuse under the hood for the clock its a 7.5 amp.

And as for your radio, yes your SOL.

 

Yeah, I will be diving under the dash again after work. Its just so damned cold and nasty out these days...

I guess there are only like 1800 possible combinations for the radio. Wonder how long it would take me to figure it out?

 

you could take the deck apart for the serial and go to a acura dealer..

 

where is the serial located inside the deck?

 

usually a stamp on the metal like black lettering ..thats what they used off my lude one

 

yeah, there was a sticker, but it is missing. I thought you meant inside the deck itself...
