Yeah, I was installing the stereo, and it blew the ignition fuse, so I replaced that with the power window fuse, and i have power now, but it turns over and won’t start! HELP for the idiot :roll: Jeff ---

I just wired the stereo up and it was working fine and I moved it around it a bit then I heard a bad noise and the car just shut off along with everything. ---

Thats weird! but probe your ignition wire on your start ignition and when you turn the key you will get a 12 v reading on your ohm meeter and sheak your system for anything that is grounding out. you can use the ohm meeter for that too. ---
