How do i diagnose what is killing my battery on a 2001 Impala. Do we know of anything that is recalled or a notorious culprit? This is my Girl's car, and i dont wanna just give up on it

well, this is how to check for a short ! hook a test light to negative post on battery, then hook other end to the neg, cable itself, . leave light hooked up, and remove negative cable from battery with light still hooked up to it. give the unhooked light and cable about 5 minutes. if light glows after neg, is disconnected from battery. you have a drain. to find it, leave light hooked up. start by pulling fuses when you pull a fuse and the light goes out youve found what circuit is causing the drain.

I have the power ground and hot wire all connected but the speaker wires dont corespond with each other. (e.g. green wire goes with green and black wire. I got a tan a black a blue a yellow a grey a...

whatever color they are coming out of your car for example one set is green. choose a color coming out of your cd player to hook up to green. test that if the front left speaker works wrap masking tape around the green wires in car and label front left. do that until you have them all labeled and correct then hook them up according to what you learned. I know it sounds tedious and it is but it's the only way you can figure it out if they are not labeled.

1995 grand prix

do you have a test light?your speaker wires should be four sets of matching color,dark/light blue,dark/light green,dark/light purple and one other matching set of colors. then there should be one black wire which should be ground.with a test light you can find your power and accesory wires. your power wire will always have power with key on or off,the acc wire will only have power when key on. i hope this will help.

I replaced the cd player in my accord, the one before worked when i took it out, the radio i put in works as well tested it with hot and ground wires and a speaker to every terminal before i hooked it up...

On many cars there is an exterior amp that the sound goes through before it is sent to the speakers. If the remote turn on wire isnt connected after you take your previous cd player out then the amp wont know when to turn on and therefore no sound will come from your speakers although your cd player is doing its job.

06 cobalt stock system hook up

I cant really assist in this matter but I can let you know that I have a system in my 2006 Chevy Cobalt and that I have an aftermarket cd player installed. I had to pay $130 for a special adapter for it to be wired into the system because GM's newest idea of installing the stereo and airbags on the same wire scheme, is kind of a dumb idea.

Car stereo

its pretty simple, the remote wire is used to tell the amplifier that the cd player has came on. once the cd player has came on, the amp then comes on. simply take a light tester that has a sharp tip, turn the ignition until the cd player comes on, and start testing all of the wires. when you hit a wire in which the light tester says there is power flowing through it, turn the cd player off. if the light goes off with the cd player, you have found a wire that is suitable for a remote wire. dont know how to use a light tester? http://www.bcae1.com/testlite.htm
