i just tried installing my jvc dvd 5100 deck. when i spliced the harnesses together i accidently cars power remote antenna(the black thing one with the 2 prongs) to one of the bare wires on the harness and it sparked for a sec. im retarded and i forgot the tape that one up and it happened to touch it. so now neither the aftermarket or the bose radio will work. im gonna lose it. i cant beleive this happened. do you think i burnt out the power antenna and now neither deck will turn on. if so how do i fix this. or is there jsut an antenna. please help me. ahhhhhhhhhh!

 

Probably just the fuse. Check the fuse on the back of the radios, and the audio/acc fuse in the fuse box and under the hood. If not check as many of the other fuses as you can.

 

omg dude i love you.... i fixed it..... iwas so scared..... mite as well ask another qquestion before i tackle this install again. since i have to ground 2 things, the actually ground then the wire to the parking break, can i just connect them 2gether then ground them? it makes sense to me..... is that a bad idea?

 

What 2 things are you grounding?

 

there both on the jvc deck.....ones the black ground and one says parking break

 

That would be fine. I do recommend them both terminating at the final grounding point though.

 

ok cool thanks.... im gonna attempt this install again when its not 2 in the morning

 

Probably the best idea yet!

 

Sounds like a plan. Keep us updated.

 

ok so i install the deck and the bose sounds alright, but does get as loud as before. the sub however sounds a lot better since im using it off the headunit and not the line out converter. however, now i have a realy annoying problem. i spliced the rcas and pluged them into the rca outputs of the deck. now, when i ever i do certain things like, change the radio station, change some of the presents or turn the car on and off, i got a popping noise through speakers. ino it have something to do with the bose because if i unplug the spliced rcas and just use the subs, they dont pop. what would i have done wrong. its sooooooo annoying.

 

Thats the bose speakers turning on and off.... sorry to say theres no really easy way to get it to stop.

 

wow thats horrible.... man im gettin rid of the bose asap

 

to that idea.

 

to that idea.

 

anyone else have an opinion about the popping noise. someone else said it souldnt be doing that. wat could i have done wrong...

 

bump......
