well i checked the fuses after i put the new ones in, and i checked em after the intirior lights went out but they were still good

if the interior lights are not working, you have a blown room fuse.

how did you make your connections at the radio? Did you tape them or just twist them together or use crimp connectors or what?

and lets face it... if you can't figure out the very very basic radio wiring on a 20 year old car, you don't have a 10 sec Talon.

ok, the stereo your trying to hook up will have a red, and yellow wire. For testing purposes, just twist them together. Touch both of them to the blue/red wire coming from your car. now ground the black wire coming from the stereo to the 10mm bolt. if your fuses are good, and the stereo isnt fried by now, it should turn on...

Yes, I have been reading your "shit". I see someone that doesn't have a clue, who can't figure out the most basic radio install (even though it is posted here in this thread, in the factory manuals and in the FAQ for FC sticky thread), and doesn't know when to take the car to {shudder} circuit city or some other radio install place.

Look... its pretty fucking simple. No dome lights (in the doors or roof), means either there is no power from the room fuse, or you have bad door switches, or you have burnt out dome light bulbs.

No power on the room fuse wires = no working radio. Your radio needs 12 volts + constant power to work (its yellow wire). Without it... it does not work or if it does, it doesn't remember the time, stations, or what it is.

So who is being an ass??? the person that wants to be spoon fed and then gets pissy or the one that was helping you.

So figure it out on your own.

Thread closed. If you don't want help, or to fix what people are telling you, you shouldn't be posting.
