It may have a poor or insufficient power supply.

If that's the case, when you turn the volume up, it draws more current, which if it doesn't get, it may shut down, as a safety precaution.

Ensure the radio power wiring is correct and if it's a high-power output unit, this should be direct from the battery, using suitable fuses of course.

Ensure the negative (earth) cable is connected to the battery and not using the vehicle body to obtain it's connection

Stereo code

Your stereo is on most likely on anti-theft, if its the stock stereo check the owners manual booklet, otherwise you'll have to ask the dealership

1992 honda civic stereo and clock don't work whats wrong?

Yeah, the ground. ALWAYS, make sure the ground is good. When that switch was cut out, the ground was disconnected also. That's why the stuff don't work and and the chronometer resets and is dim. ALWAYS check the ground before ANYTHING else is done.

The problem is bad wire connections, check the connections you made, if you don't understand the diagrams go to an expert.
You can cause major problems if you keep trying and doing it wrongly.
If you know what you're doing, if everything is ok and the problem persists try the same stereo in another car to check if the problem is that.
