electrical? stock deck and clock not working...

**dtrang** · 11-11-2006 08:17 PM

hey everyone
i took out the spare DIN storage underneath the radio/cd changer and then my sis took the car out and the deck fell down and i assume shut itself off cause it has an anti theft system. thinking abt getting a new deck but just want to know how to turn the damn thing back on cause it seems like it has no power. As for the clock it doesnt come up anymore...

which is really annoying when i check the time and its not there!! anyone know how i can fix this?

sounds like a fuse problem. make sure you check that first.

fuse box is located under the steering column in an integra.

fuse 23 and it takes a 15w.

this is what happens in my GF/s ef.

Might be different for a teg as radio is fuse 23 and clock is 15.

Check both!

there's a fuse in the fuse box in the top right of the engine bay..
i believe it's the "back up" fuse..

replace that.

Better yet, if those specific ones don't work, check all your fuses.

Since your clock went out at the same time, that tells us that it's much more likely to not just be an issue with the radio.
So check fuses, and as before, the wiring. If all the fuses are fine then wiring could have been pulled apart at a join, or a plug might have become disconnected.
If it's a wire it'd be the yellow ('IGN'?) wire, not the red 'Constant'. Or a 'Ground' wire. Follow the wires from the back of the head unit and along the stock wiring until you find the problem. After you've checked your fuses, of course.

Good luck

sounds like fuse prob

i've seen the same thing happen in an ek sedan...i just replaced the fuse (sorry can't remember which one) and both the clock and HU (which was aftermarket) worked again

hmm ill try them as soon as i can... after my exams SHIT! lawl but yeah ive taken the HU out and checked if the wires are in and they were. any more suggestions of whats wrong please post them up THANKS

fuse takes 1 minute to check buddy.

save yourself the trouble and check engine bay fuses and dashboard fuse first. no need to be ripping out head units.

yeah i checked it today.. one fuse didnt light up which was a 15w one i couldnt see i believe it was the radio/cig lighter but the cig lighter works and the radio doesnt. clock still not working. dads getting new fuses just in case.

Or look in your owners manual for reset information. Most radios made today have a reset system of one kind or another. Push the button or slide a pin into the hole and push the reset and see if it powers up.

hmm ill check but as i said its kinda old HU stock abt 9-10yrs old
