camino_1to3 Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 I'm having a problem with my new head unit. I own a 1989 Honda Civic DX hatch. Just bought an Alpine CDA-9884 saturday and KNOW it works because I purchased it off the wall. I wired up the harness, plugged it in and nothing. Checked my wiring and tried again, nothing. Re-checked wiring, checked fuses, nothing. Swapped fuse on head unit and radio fuse in car, nothing. I can't figure out my volt meter so I couldn't test it but I did undo the ground from the harness and tried against metal on car, it sparked, held it there and still nothing. I've gone back and checked for loose wires on harness, and connection to battery from factory wiring to harness. Does anyone see something I may be doing wrong? Or is there anyone out there with the slightest idea of something I'm missing? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

dwright27 Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 are you sure you have accessory wire running into the stock harness?? hook the red and yellow together. if it comes on then you'll have to run an accessory wire to the ignition harness for when you to the key it turns the radio on.

Nothing. I did it from the back of the H/U to the new harness. Should I be doing it from the car harness to the head unit?

drew028 Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 When i had my 9813 sometimes i would have trouble with it. After disconnecting it to do some work or whatever and reconnecting the radio back when i was done it wouldnt work. A couple of times i thought i blew it but after messing with and disconnecting the harness after awhile it would work. Still puzzled about that to this day...

camino_1to3 Posted March 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 (edited) have you tried to hook this up straight to a battery yet without any vehicle wiring in the loop ? No, power and ground to one terminal right though? Or power to pos. and ground to neg. or metal in bay?
