i just installed a new radio in my 95' coupe. i followed the wires by color and turned on the radio. all speakers worked fine, cd player was running.

then...

i turned on my car...still working...i then turned on my headlights three speakers dont work and my cd player is not reading CDs. what the hell happend?

 

what kind of radio is it? hope its not a kenwood.....

 

Sounds like you may have miswired the dimmer or illumination wire. But generally, that will cause problems with your dash lights and not the deck, but anything's possible I guess...

 

blew the radio. i dunno how. i didnt even wire the dimmer wire cause there wasnt one one the original harness from the car.
