Took my car to Midas about a week ago to get my overheating and idle problems fixed (I was too fed up with my car at the time to do any work on it..just sick of it) Anyways they do a diognistic and found out that it was my ground wire on my radiator fan, and that the vaccum hose that was leaking was behind the IM and under the brake booster...anyways, they wanted to do more "investigating" and charge me another 80 some bucks to dig deeper into the problem...so I said no, so they stopped. Get my car back to realize that my CD player won't even turn on. I call him the next day and tell him that it wouldn't turn on, and they said that the only thing they did was turn it off, yet it worked perfectly fine before then. He also mentioned that it was "my problem, not theirs" and that they weren't going to fix it...any suggestions?

 

well it depends...is it an aftermarket cd player or a stock cd player...

cuz my stock cd player had code u had to put in everytime the battery was disconnected...before it would turn on...i dont know if there are many aftermarket cd players that have that...

well in anycase, hope everything works out for ya...

 

It's an Pioneer DEPH 3500 and it doesn't have a code...anymore ideas? LOL you don't know how borring it is to drive with no music!

 

check all your fuses?

No it doesn't and I was talking to the manager of that store. Read first post to see what he said.

 

go back and ask for the phone number of the district manager.

 

i hope those idiots disconnected the battery b4 operating on any ground wire. If not, they might have fried something in the wiring harness. any dash lights going crazy or not working properly? get a light tester (has a metal rod that looks like an icepick to stick to power and a seperate ground check the radio harness for power.
