Default wireing in new deck. may of screwed up BIG!!!!!!!!!!!!

hello. i was in the process of wiring in a new clarion deck inrelapce of the original honda deck. i am curently driving a 93 civic LX. as i was wiring in the new deck i accidently tounched a wire that had current to the ground wire causing it to short out. the wire that i shorted out was the only wire that had power when the deck was off. the wire is white with a blue strip on it. if any one can help me get power back to his wire it would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
Garrett

Sounds like you will have just blown a fuse, find your fuse box, change the fuse and you should be sweet.

That is the fuse labeled as backup or domelight. It may be under the hood.

my dome light fuse is right beneath the steering wheel</TD></TR></TABLE> Yes its the constant power fuse under hood, did you check? it should be a 7.5 amp [ brown ] fuse, it is the one that powers the wire at the radio harness that is live even with ign. off.
If you have a high power HU you would be better off wireing the yellow power wire off your HU right to batt.
If it is the Clarion with two yellow wires [one thin and one thick] wire the thin one at the radio harness, and run the thick one to the batt.

hope this helps. 94
