| So I get home from my Chrustmas travels and go start up my 1990 Bronco and notice that the stereo doesn't come on when I plaxce the face plate back on it. It is a Kenwood MDC-225 cd player bought last year. I checked the fuse in my fuse box and the fuses are all good. I noticed in the schemnatic that the deck itself has a 10amp fuse could this be blown? If so do I have to pull the deck o ut to get to it? If I have to pull the deck where can I get the tool to remove the deck? I can't seem to find mine, thought I put them in my roll away tool box but is nowhere to be found. Will a car stereo shop sell this tool to me? |
| A stereo shop will likely sell you a removal tool. Did you install the stereo yourself? The 10A fuse is likely an inline fuse, and is located on the stereos constant power wire. If that fuse is OK you may also want to check the grounds as well, the ground on an electronic device is as important as the power feed. |
| Ok I just got back from the local car stereo shop and it was a VERY easy fix. THe guy told me that he would have to charge me to look at the deck or I would have to pull the deck and leave it for the guys to look at. So I told him the problem and the counter guy walked out to the truck with me. He asks me if I have a pen, I give him one and he pushes in a little button on the front of the deck itself and then puts the face plate on and pushes on a small little button on the face plate and BOOOM. I ahve sound again. Now why can't the instructions reveal this instead of just saying call for service if the fuse is good and still not powering on. |
