OK...so the other night i was wiring up the switch for my 2 stage boost controller...i thought it would be easy to just tap into the power wire from my CD player for power on the switch....well i did that and it was on for about 2 seconds, and then it died...the switch light went off and now my cd player wont turn on either...

i thought i blew a fuse...checked em all...all good...

thought i toasted the cd player...plugged in one that i know works...it doesnt work either.

couple weird things...my dash clock...WAY dim...turn on the headlights and the clock just about goes off....

cruise control doesnt work anymore either?

is there a fuse or relay or something that i dont know about??? strange thing though is that my cigerette lighter still works and its on the same fuse as teh stereo.....so its something specific to the power wire in the stereo harness.


HELP ME!! im gonna drive this thing off a cliff if i have to drive it one more day listening to all my rattles haha!

maybe you melted and shorted a wire somewhere...

 

i didnt smell smoke or see any????

all the wires on the switch and at the harness seem to be ok...

the dim clock...non working cruise...has really got me baffled

 

your right same problem! i never checked my cruise thuo.

 

fixed it loL!! it was my battery back up fuse lol! i checked it before but never took it out to look at it...it was barely blown...

i replaced it and all is good...

does your clock reset everytime you start your car?? thats a sure sign its the battery back up from what ive been told!

hope that helps ya!
