How did you have the head unit mounted in the first place? There's a reason for mounting things securely //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Sounds like you have something shorted. Try pulling out all the radio wiring and the head unit and seeing if the starting issue goes away. Then reinstall the radio the right way this time.

You went from a malfunctioning (no doubt due to an improper install from the sounds of things) headunit to a non-funtioning vehicle? That's a heap'o messed up wiring, fella! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

nope no spark when replacing the fuse but i noticed the only wire i forgot too tape off was that ****nnnnnn 12 volt wire (battery) so would a new harness solve this....im pretty sure im going to need a new fuel pump fuse because when i turn the key for the battery i dont hear thar prepin type sound as i did before.........

ooo yea im runining a 94 honda civic lx if its any help

i would just take a look at all the fuses in your car, dont forget the box under the hood too.

Find your fuse box, and find the radio fuse, and see if that is blown, if so,replace. DURR

Check ALL of your fuses.

Do the headlights, dash lights, dome light, and other acc. work still?

 

[damon]

If there was only one wire, that you couldn't tape, it should be your ground.

step one get out of vehicle

step 2 call a tow truck

step 3 call local audio shop

step 4 get them to fix your ignorance.. leaving a hot wire untaped is the stupidest thing ever

step 5 pay them to fix your ignorance

step 6 dont ever take you cd player out again

 

[damon]

so if its not the fuse then... would a new harness do the trick?
