Ragehole Posted February 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 yeah, they are all clear so you can see right through them to see if the metal inside is broken. there are no loose wires and no corrosion on any termanal or wire or fuse.

Ragehole Posted February 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 so i found a fuse under the hood that i didnt check kuz i didnt think it would have to do with the radio. and i replaced it and the radio worked for about 5 minutes and then kicked the fuse out again. now every time i try to replace the fuse, the second i put the new one in it pops the new one. any ideas. thinking a ground issue somewhere or possibally a positive wire touching somewhere?

varietyguy Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 You've got a short somewhere. pull the head unit out and unplug the harness, then put in a fuse and see if it still pops.

Ragehole Posted February 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 i pulled the head unit and switched the fuse with it out and it seemed to have worked for now. i will report back if i have any more problems with this issue. thanks every body who had something to say. i really appreciate it. I really missed my beats. Bassheads for life!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragehole Posted February 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 so im still having the issue.... i found these 3 wires comming out of my rear view mirror that had come disconnected. idk if those may have anything to do with why the fuse keeps blowing but i also noticed that my sunroof doesnt work either now. they must all be tied into eachother on that fuse. could these wires from my mirror touching be enough to short that fuse out. they are for my lights that are in the mirror? i have taped them off for now till i can get it fixed. my windshield flexes like an inch and a half or so when the bass is on so i think that my be my short... let me know what you guys think.
