Ok so when i bought the car the factroy fitted stereo wouldnt work, when power was pushed it wouldnt light up and i would just get crackeling not sure how to spell that but yeh crackeling from the front speakers. Mums buying me a 500 dollar kenwood flagship model for my birthday, til then i decided to buy a cheapo from cashies 49 dollars TESTED working and I bought the converter harness for the stocko harness to kenwood adapter. ok just you guys can tell me if i went wrong anywhere ill go step by step. 1 remove radio surround and ashtray housing 2 remove stock cassette player 3 attached factory to iso addapter and attached iso to kenwood adapter and 4 where it all went down hill pluged in the the stereo and straight away without turning on acc i got crackleing, the stereo's heatsink heated up like a motherf****r and blew the interior light fuse and just left me stumped. wat gets me is it powered up and everything for like 15 seconds and died. i thought doged fuse so i replaced tried again, powered up, heated and blew another fuse. any help is appreciated Cars, a love hate relationship |

one/both of the front speakers might be shorting out, check speaker wiring etc, dont keep plugging in the head unit you'll fk it.

Redo the wiring,
Earth. Find a metal point behind the face plate. Speakers. Run new speaker wire. Power wire. First tap into the Cigarette lighter first, if that doesnt work then run a new power wire as a test from the battery (be carful here) Memory wire. (not essential for testing) Run a new one, bit tired here so cant remember if the cigarette lighter is accessory or permanent power. If that doesnt work the head unit amp is my main suspect. |
