i put the new head unit in last night and it turned on. but two of the exposed wire from the harness touched and it shorted
so i replaced the 20 amp fuse in the fuse box and my head unit still wont turn on.. ![]() |

You may also have blown more than 1 fuse in that panel, so check them all with meter doing a continuity test. Also, make sure the wires are not touching anymore, and you have a proper ground, acc, and 12v connection. |

Want to say our cars have two fuses for the radio, then the fuse on the head unit itself.
