99 Legacy Factory Stereo Problem


Recommended Posts

So, the green backlight is working on the stereo.

But nothing else is. No eject, no clock, no nothing.

Ive checked whatever fuses under the hood and under the steering wheel that corespond with the radio according to the manual and they seemed to be fine.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Has this happened before. I didnt witness it, but apparently it happened all of a sudden.

any help would be great..

cheers

Definately the radio is not getting any power, and that's where to start your search. Assuming its a factory installed radio, it may be that the wiring harness to the radio is partially disconnected or corroded. Its easy enough to pull the radio and check/wiggle the plug to see if that makes a difference. Also, some radios have a fuse built into them. If yours has one, it may be blown, or your fuse in the fuse panel may be bad, even though you've checked it visually. Try replacing it with a known good one. When you pull the radio and disconnect the wiring harness, use a test light to see if there is power there at the connector, usually the red wire or the orange one. Good luck.
