[QUOTE="youdoofus, post: 8667141, member: 664079"] there really is only a few things you can do in this situation. my neighbor across the street just sold his 03 accord and it had an aftermarket in the lower compartment and a dead OEM HU in its stock location (why he did it that way, i have no clue). so, if your fuse is good, you can pull the stock deck and find the constant and switched 12 volt leads and check them with a DMM. The constant should always show 12v and switched only when the key is on the acc or on position. My bet is that the deck is dead, and you can replace it with an aftermarket unit for dirt cheap nowadays and make it sound a lot better at the same time compared to a working OEM HU. While youre at is, if money availability permits, get one with android auto and make your car navi enabled ;) you can get a double din that looks sharp as hell for around $300 and using either android auto or (yuck) apple car play can add google maps navigation in one fell swoop [/QUOTE]
