j2coe Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 still working out kinks in a 1999 leg OB. it has an aftermarket stereo put in by the previous owner self installed I would guess since the harness was chopped. all the wires seem to match according to the wiring diagram I didn't check the polarity of the speakers since it's probably irrelivant. any way I had my ipod plugged in to the aux port -worked fine, but the charge was getting low so I plugged in the charger, after a horrible screeching noise the chargeris dead. won't work any more in any other vehicle in a good socket but will light up. the socket registers 12 volts with a meter but nothing plugged in to it will light up. that I really don't get. anyone seen anything like this? Even if I install a new stereo I would guess the same thing could happen again unless I can figure out what's up with the lighter/outlet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j2coe Posted September 8, 2008 Author Share Posted September 8, 2008 looks like the 2 plugs on the lighter/outlet were reversed, didn't know you could do that. seems to work with them switched back around. I suppose that clears up the question of any other short to the stereo. just need a new stereo without a fried volume control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
