Next time, connect the ground wire before you give it power.

 

Thanks.....yeah. I see now why I don't **** with stereo installs. I should have had the battery disconnected too. But I am a dumbass and figured this would be a simple plug and play.

 

Hey just to humor me, check your fusible link. When it goes bad nothing electrical works. However, I don't know if there is an intermediate stage. You know like limbo where your stuff makes noise and gurgles like the death rattle... Oh sorry. Anyway the fusible link is the simplest thing to check.

 

fusible link is located where exactly?????? I just bought a Microtech LT8 just in case.



But I still think I can fix it with some luck...just got to find the culprit.
