Noob Audio Questions

I don’t have access to a multimeter myself so i haven’t had the chance to check, but i tried moving my mirrors today and it doesn’t work anymore and the time doesn’t display either so i’m assuming that you guys are correct in that a fuse is blown. My friend with the multimeter supposedly checked the red and black wires and the fuses and said they’re all good, but i think i’m going to just accept the L and take the truck to an audio shop and see if they can finish installing it.

 

Replace the 7.5A fuse that goes here. Mine is not in the picture because I pulled my Add a Fuse out of the way for the picture. This fuse panel is by your knee on the driver side inside the cabin behind the pull out storage tray.

At some point try and grab a cheap auto-ranging multimeter. It will serve you well to have one lying around.

 

You could also just pick up a cheap test light .Wont tell you voltage but you know you got power .

So obviously this fuse is blown, do you think that there could possibly be others that blew too or would only this one have gone? And if I fix this (assuming this is the only fuse that blew) I should be good to work on the stereo again?

 

Odds are that is the only blown fuse and your stereo will work if you replace this fuse.

 

Got my stereo working again, thanks for helping me with all the problems. Will wait to call crutchfield before trying to install the reverse cam

 

Nice Your camera red should be reverse lite positive ,black ground and yellow video input on stereo for reverse camera . But that reverse positive also needs to splice onto stereo rev lite trigger purple /white wire .
BUT yea call crutchfield to make sure . Also ask how to program so camera turns on in reverse like you want .
Going install mine this week
