    Advice! I installed a new radio on my truck. Radio didnt powered. Now few messages are displaying; departure lane, collisions, tire pressure not working, AC panel control, lighter plu, usb not working. I have check fuses with not luck. I am not a tech savvy but thought it was going to be plug n play easy process. Any advice on how can I fix my mess are welcome. Thanks

    Aftermarket or OEM radio?

    I'd suspect your ECU-IG No2 (7.5A) fuse in the interior fuse box is blown.

    First and most, Thank you so much. It did fix the problem.

    Now any advice on how fix radio, usb not powering. Which I am guessing there all connected. I checked fuses under the dash it seems to be working. Under the hood they dont seem blowed but when i test them there isnt light coming from the fuse test. Again, thank you

    OEM,

    I was trying to install an aftermarket then the whole electrical issue started. So i installed back the OEM.

    Yea modern vehicles don't get along well with aftermarket electronics because everything is integrated and networked, you mess with one module and it affects everything on the network.

    I'll poke around on some diagrams when I get time, I'm asuming you have the non JBL system?

    The fuse for the USB charge port is in the interior fuse box, it's either labeled P/OUTLET No2 (15A) or USB (7.5A) depending on production date.

    That's the fuse for the reverse lights.

    Are you sure it got plugged back in? Those wires have a tendency to fall back into the dash when removed. Also, which USB ports aren't working? The media port under the climate control or the charging ports in the center console? Just want to clarify.

    Since the radio is not that bad to remove, I would pull it back out and make sure the plug clicked into place. And did you get the maestro RR to keep the majority of the factory settings?
