Question Aftermarket Radio Help

Well i installed a different radio in my car today, because i was selling the one i had in there already, and it came on for a sec and i guessed something touched and went off. So i thought i just blew the radio so i installed the old one, nothing touched and every wire covered and now the old one doesent work either. Any ideas?

if the old radio isnt working, thats what I would suspect. This is why it neat t go to Al & Eds and get a harness for your stereo and type of car. $15 and its plug and play.

Its possible, but highly unlikely. Not sure whihch fuse, off the top of my head.

Open your drivers door, pop the fuse panel off (left side of you dash, when door is open). THere should be a diagram, one will say radio. You should have spares on the edge as wel, change it out.
