My car stereo has stopped working?
Hi, so I have a Ford KA (2000) and decided to swap out the standard cassette player (for obvious reasons) and put in another radio. I picked up a Sendai CD-789 and the necessary adaptors to compensate for the KA's wiring design. I took out the old player and fitted the new one fine - except (after working at first) a few days later it has stopped working. I took the radio out and fiddled with the wires with the power on (and the lights on the head blinked) which leads me to understand that the radio itself is working and isn't the problem. It seems that the ISO connector that came with the radio doesn't work, though I'm not sure - does it sound like a dodgy connector? What can I do to fix it?
I have very limited knowledge in this field and would appreciate some help!
Certainly sounds like a connector not engaging properly or maybe even a broken wire caused by trapping it.
To fix it even a person with lots of knowledge would have to do some examination and perhaps testing with a multimeter
You will get no further than this on the internet
- Headlights, instrument cluster lights, tail lights, and dome light all stopped working at once? 1995 Mustang GT convertible, fuses are good, switch is good. I'm about to do a voltage drop test on it tomorrow but I wanted to see if you Ford guys knew something that I'm overlooking.
- My indicators and hazards have stopped working? I had this problem with my ford ka 56 plate and the relay switch got changed as they said this was the problem but 4 weeks later they have stopped working again. They don't come on at all. Any ideas what could be causing it as surely it can't be the switch again as its just been changed
- Windows wipers stopped working I have a 53 plate Ford focus cmax and whilst driving in the rain the other day the window wipers just stopped working. So when finally got home I changed the fuse and it kept blowing so on the Monday took it to the mechanic and he had it for a week and a half and they are still not fixed. He has checked the motor, wiring, fuse box and they are all fine. Before he had it you could hear the relay clicking when you flicked the switch but now you don't? Any advise would be very grateful.
- 2008 ford focus se transmission stopped working, lost power steering, and yellow engine light went on? I checked under the hood and everything looks fine. I started it back up and it ran fine and the engine light was no longer on. Should i be worried?
