Blown fuses for the stereo

One thing to check and I have come across this a couple of times is that some factory stereos used a black wire for the stereo illumination, if you have wired the black (earth) from the new unit to this wire it will cause the fuse to blow, disconnect the earth from this wire and wire it directly to the vehicle.

make sure the stero ground isn't hooked to a tail light wire,if the lights are off the wire will appear to be a ground.

it actually sounds like a problem with the power supply inside the radio. may have gotten wet or just shorted out.

This could be a component or a wiring fault. It is easier to check the components so:-

1)Remove lamp and insert new fuse.

If fuse goes again, disconnect stereo, replace lamp and fuse.

If fuse does not blow the dump stereo.

If fuse goes again, trace the wiring and

If it still blows, then the stereo is likely to be faulty

Check your Ignition 1 & ignition 3 fuses in the inside fuse block,also check the body fuse 10amp in the inside fuse block.Keyless entry should take back off once you found the blown fuse.hope this helps

chase wires and seal up the exposed, cover em up i had a simmular problem i keeped blowin fuses and one day i disconeccted my alarm.....havent blown a fuse since!!...did u install a cd player on ur own? i

91 honda accord lx, fuse keeps blowing for tail lights. changed rear bulb sockets but still, same problem. fuse blows soon as i turn on the park lights. what can be the problem?

mcdevito75 here, The battery light indicates the charge the alternator is putting back into the battery, a regulator in the alternator allows only a certain amount of electricity to be built up. Sounds like the regulator in the alternator is shorted and draining the battrey, Have your repair shop test the alternator and replace.

More likely that the solenoid in the transmission is shorted to ground. Has any new electronic equipment been installed recently, like stereo, alarm, etc?

first of all putting in non genuine stereos usually you have wires left check the fuse in back of stereo check all your fuses under your dash and in the bonnet even if wires touched momentarely its enough to blow multiple fuses which may be your problem your wiring may be fine see how you go
