[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 7339897, member: 576029"] your install is likely the problem. did you buy the proper wiring harness for the car so you didn't cut any factory wires? how did you make connections to the harness? solder? crimp? wrap and tape? most likely you don't have voltage on the ignition wire (red wire on the deck) or the constant wire (yellow) and you blew that fuse (which is why your lighting doesn't work). if it reacts to the car's ignition, it's likely the yellow wire since it shouldn't light up at all when the ignition is off (unless you mixed up your wiring). find the radio fuse, and replace it. but first, clarify how you installed the head unit. your wiring may have a short which is why the fuse blew in the first place. just putting fuses in can cause more damage until you fix the short.
