Alright here's the problem. I was switching out radios in my two cars awhile ago and yes, my dumbass forgot to disconnect the battery. Anyways I was cutting wires and of course sparked one and didnt think much about it. I connected the new radio, and it doesn't work and neither does the clock. So i think it must be the fuse right since their both on the same circuit and I sparked them earlier. Well the fuse is fine. All the fuses are fine. And the fuse on the radio is also fine. Does anybody have any idea what could be causing the radio AND the clock not to work?

 

I'm not sure, but did you always check the fuses under the hood?

 

no i didnt check them under the hood because those are things for the engine and it runs fine

 

anyone?

 

?

 

What kind of stereo? Are you sure that stereo works? Try hooking up the old one and see if that one works, if so there's your problem.

its an alpine with the ipod kit...and i know it works cause i took it out of my old civic when i sold it....and the clock isnt working either which is odd...but all the fuses are good.

 

I know this sounds stupid but are you turning the key to ACC? My next step would be, check for battery voltage with a multimeter(voltmeter).

 

hahahaha yes the key is turned on....everything works fine, lights, windows, climate control....but the clock and radio....this one has even stumped me and its pissing me off cause its like a $350 radio just sitting there...and its driving me nuts not to have the radio when im driving...ive started singing to myself
