[QUOTE="WhiteYota, post: 8380303, member: 664829"] I have not had any stock units apart so I am not sure on the fuses however I have had plenty aftermarket units apart and have not seen any internal fuses (with the exception on Pioneers pico fuse). I do not think that stock units have any in them because they are fused in the main fuse block. I would think it is very possible that it did blow some internal component. There is a website called [URL="http://www.car-part.com/"]Car Part[/URL] that you can search for a stock HU from a wrecked vehicle. I did a quick look and seen that there are some out there in FL from 100-175$ if you want to stay with the stock HU. I will mention that if you do go that route depending on how Ford does the programming on that HU, one from a salvaged truck might have to be re-programed at a dealer. It just depends on if the computer system in your truck cares if the VIN # in the radio matches the other computers in the truck. [/QUOTE]
