so as you know I had to change my alternator which required battery unplug, but now my stereo won't come on, I assume it needs to be reset in some way? Its a pioneer head unit btw. I don't have manuals or anything cause it was in here when I bought it. Thanks

Check your fuses to be sure there not blown.

Look here for manuals for your head unit.

def. check your fuses, and pull out the head unit and double check your wire harness. are you running an amp?

my old eclipse head unit needed my CD that I locked it with. Does it have a lock code or CD lock. Check for voltage on your ACC and constant power wires. It should be red and yellow.

there is a small 10 amp fuse behind the radio, pull the radio out of the dash and disconnect the wire harness from the radio then you will see a red 10 amp fuse, check that to make sure its good

Willdue · 12-04-2006, 04:43 PM

Ill check that then...

Constant power or memory = Yellow wire running to head unit

ACC = Red wire running to head unit

If the fuse is good behind the Head unit then get yourself a test light or borrow one and check for voltage with the key on and off.

there is no fuse behind the head unit...? ughhh
