Dead radio console

[irishinontario]

Today i tried my first bit of maintenance/repair on my new truck......

I had a cd stuck in the changer, which was affecting the dvd player also.

i got the the cd unit and actual cd out no problem, but when i replaced the unit, it still would not let anything happen with the cd player.
it went from radio to dvd ok, but kept saying cd error.

i took out the unit again to see if i pushed load could i see the problem, but nothing at all happened.

there is nothing at all comming out - the unit is dead, no clock even.....

could it be something simple like a fuse?
- if so, which fuse(s) do i change?

or have i really screwed up???/

thanks.....

no...it is a recurring problem with their cd players and the only fix is to buy an aftermarket and install it...

was hoping it was a fuse as earlier the radiio/dvd part was fine, just the cd aspect was not working, now i cant even tell the time!, or listen to the radio.

my daughters are going to freak next week end with now dvd player!

e and find the thread that tells u have to wire the overhead to it

i would rather not have to do that, but if i do, where is the thread to get the dvd unit working?

thanks........ its the main attraction to the truck for my daughters!

check the following fuses F1.22, F1.7, F 1.31, F1.4 being you had things disconnected go back and recheck anything that you disconnected to make sure that you reconnected properly. Look at the connectors to make sure no pins came out/loose

checked the fuses and the pins, no luck.

i only noticed on the way to work this morning, that the dial to change from 2WD to AWD does not light up either

thanks for the info though

I think you may have blown a fuse or two

check fuse F1.6 were there any other indicator lights out??

not that i can see, - indicator as in left/right turn? (sorry, same language but different english sometimes!!)

F1. 6 means just slot 6 i presume...... dont mean to sound thick!

 

[irishinontario]

could it be a relay switch i blew?

you should have a print-out of the fuse layout in your owners manual which will have the fused listed and location
