So I was installing a new pioneer 3800 cd player in my 94 ls teg and everything was intalled good. I go to turn it on and my radio doesn't power up nor is my lights on or my clock. I have checked all the fuses in the car and on the cd player, but it has to be shorted out somewhere in the car cause of the lighting issues..
HELP ME PLEASE FIGURE OUT WHAT I CAN DO...THANKS

 

did you disconnect your battery? if so.. you should reconnect it...

ive done that a few times..

 

you should check the fuse inside the engine its a backup fuse i believe its a 7.5

i felt like a dumb *** cuz i thought everything went wrong

 

I'LL CHECK THE FUSE UNDER THE HOOD, AND I FORGOT TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY, THATS PROBABLY WHY I HAD A SHORT OUT..LOL

 

ah so u didn't check all of the fuses... anyway aside from messing with u it would probably be ur under hood fuse but do u have power at the radio?

 

Probably fried the radio, I did that because I didnt disconnect my battery once.

If you didn't disconnect the battery you probably blew a fuse... hopefully thats it and not the stereo....

 

ITS BEEN RAINING ALL DAY, SO I HAVE NOTCHECKED THE FUSE UNDER THE HOOD YET, BUT THERE IS NO POWER INSIDE THE CAR NOW AT ALL....

 

THANKS SOO MUCH GUYS. IT WAS MY BACKUP FUSE. EVERYTHING WORKS GREAT NOW...
