I have a 1993 chevy truck that I replaced the silver box above the gas pedal with one that was working in my 1989 chevy truck. I can change channels and the time but have no sound coming out of the speakers. Any suggestions on what to check now?

SOURCE: the brake lines ruptured above the gas tank, i replaced them..

Bleed the master cylinder and then rebleed the brakes. If you are still getting a spongy pedal after this then your master cylinder is bad.
Please rate this and let me know if this solved your problem.

SOURCE: I have an 1989 chevy

It sounds like you may have a bad fuel pressure regulator. The fuel pressure regulator is in the throttle body housing and the throttle body in your truck works best at 13psi to 15psi, Any other setting will cause problems. Check the vacuum hose to the fuel pressure regulator at the throttle body and check the fuel pressure at the shredder valve. The way the throttle body works is for the first 75% of the throttle, the ecm uses the signal form the O2 sensors to control the air fuel ratio and tries to keep it to 14.7:1 but at full throttle it by pass the O2 sensor signal and runs the engine richer and advances the timing so you can drive with wings like red bull. The Map sensor then takes over to promote the engine to run richer so you don't run lean and detonation occurs. If there is a problem with your throttle body position sensor, map sensor. and fuel pressure regulator, then at WOT (skinny peddle down) you may be running to rich. The other thing to is if your fuel pressure drops at WOT you'll get a lean condition and then you'll have detonation ( Knocking) and the timing will be turned down to keep detonation from occurring again and that may be the cause if your check engine light too. First and easiest thing to do is change the fuel filter and add fuel injector cleaner to you gas tank, buy a throttle body cleaner and clean your throttle body to make sure you don't have varnish build up around the throttle body, just follow the instruction on the can. Throttle body cleaner not carb cleaner. Start with that and i hope we don't have to do any more to get your truck running like a rocket. Good luck and keep me posted. Be glad to help.

SOURCE: 88 Chevy truck runs then dies for no reason

do a test to see if the coil is ok and check the red and white wire coming from the back of the distributor for corrosion if those fail test the injectors for pulse

SOURCE: 1989 Chevy Truck , Stock Radio , Whining noise

Sounds like you have a capacitor problem.It could be a number of issues , but i suggest you check the alternator one first.

If you unplug the power cable to the back of the alternator and the whining goes away then replace the capacitor(usually only one bolt/screw)and you should be OK.

If not I sometimes have dissconnected the + wire from the HT coil when the car is running and the same applies,and if this works replace the capacitor or fit one if there isn't.

If none of this helps fit one to the + wires of your radio.

Please leave fair comment if I have helped you.

Thank you

According to this it is a know issue and the gauge has a reset procedure.

How do you reset the fuel gauge on a Chevy Suburban?

Press and hold the "Trip/Odo" button. Turn the ignition switch on and hold the "Trip/Odo" switch for about two seconds. Then, release the "Trip/Odo" button, press it again (do this three or four times), and finally hold it for about four to five seconds until the leveling information shows on the Odometer.Jun. 19, 2021

WIRING FOR 16164325 DELCO RADIO

That is not a radio. That is a control head. The 7 wires carry data to the radio brain which on this trucks is a silver box located directly above the gas pedal. These trucks also had an optional cassette player/ cassette and eq unit that was mounted in the center of the dash that also connected to the radio brain as well.

I have unplugged/replugged the power box for my stereo above the gas pedal and it does not work...what can I do to repair my radio...it just stopped working..no sound..stuck on station..turn off stuck on...

those stereoes are know for being junk. those boxes above the gas pedal go out all the time. your cheapest solution is to just buy an aftermarket stereo to eliminate that bad box. the new stereo mounts where the tape player is/would be if equipped. you can find the mounting kit here..
