Stereo is hooked up, but not receiving power. wondering if it might be a blown fuse, and how do i fix this?

1. Check the wiring: Make sure that all the wires are properly connected to the stereo and to the car's electrical system. Look for loose, disconnected, or damaged wires and repair or replace them if necessary.
2. Check the fuse: The car stereo may not be receiving power if the fuse that protects it has blown. Check the fuse panel in the car and replace any blown fuses.
3. Check the battery: If the battery is dead, the car stereo won't receive power. Charge or replace the battery if needed.
4. Check the ground wire: The ground wire is essential for the proper functioning of the car stereo. Make sure it's properly connected to a clean, unpainted metal surface in the car.
5. Check the wiring harness: If the wiring harness is damaged or not properly connected, it may prevent the car stereo from receiving power. Replace the wiring harness if necessary.

Could be to late. Could have blow the BCM. Unhook the radio and see if the other things start working. If they do, your lucky. Then find some to hook up the radio. I can install radios, but I use a volt /ohm meter. You can not trust the diagrams the radios come with. Or the diagrams I buy.

Sterreo work? Id say you got some wireing wrong in the process, double check your work. Bright flashlight helps me.

As it's a stereo receiver and you specify one CV speaker, hook the speaker to the other side of the receiver and see if it still has the same problem. If so, hook it to any other audio source you may have. If it has a problem on only one side of the receiver, the receiver has a blown channel. If the speaker distorts on both sides of the receiver and on a separate audio source, the speaker is blown.

Sound system w/o amplifier. Not only check the fuses, check the fuse circuit for voltage, use a test lite. As you can see, one fuse is hot all the time, the other fuse goes hot with the key on. Also check ground wire, that wire color is black.

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.

Afternoon, the stereo has a fuse, which has blown. They are usually found on the positive side of the wire for the main power to stereo , if not that one, it is the fuse inside it. The ones I have fixed are very tiny, not standard size. Next time, disconnect the battery or put tape over the ends of the wires. good luck. You are not the first to do this and you certainly will not be the last so do not feel too bad. (Australia)

ok, most likely he hooked up the power to the wrong place or worse disconnected an important ground connection. the fuses will not blow because current is probably being redirected to other circuits. try to remove the radio and its connections and recheck for anything that got loose or removed especially ground connections. get a wiring diagram for your car and hook up power to the accessory circuit and make sure that it is protected by a fuse. again ground wires and connections are very important. problems here can cause a lot of weird symptoms.

Used a test light with key on, if no light at test light on both proms on fuse, remove and check blown fuse, also some may not have voltage, turn head light's on, could be head light fuse, should come on with light's on, but it's best to just pull fuse and check to make sure it's good or bad, lighter fuse does power your OBD2.

Look for a dimmer wire,, sounds like your radio dont have the option for the car dimmer switch,,

the power for these lights run through the dimmer wire for the radio. ether its not hooked up or the radio dont have the option for it.

there is a way to bypass the radio dimmer option,, BUT you have to know what your doing or you could fry something.

look for Car Radio Illumination/dimmer Wire: should be Green.
