Sounds like your system is too powerful for your battery.

 

Actually it sound like the alternator is either fried or the connection has come loose. The battery must still have enough voltage to start the car but not enought to power any of the electrical devises. If nobody with a working alt believes this unplug the wiring harness and see how long your accessories still work. My headunit shuts off between 11 and 12 volts, so that still gives me enough battery time to pull off the road and get to a parking lot.

 

no i have an 800watt amp from a flea market so i dont even think it is true 800 watts......

 

i dont think its the alternator...i guess i should have been more specific.....all the other electrical parts work fine.......inside and out....headlights taillights blinkers indiglo guages hazzards defrosters the ac/heat the only think out is the cd player the clock and power dorrlocks/wondows........so not everything electricla is fried thats why this is buggin me so much......

 

In that case it sounds like a relay but I don't now which one. There are several under the hood in plastic bins similar to the under hood fuse box. Opening the box may answer your question or spawn many new questions.

 

where exactly are the relays under the hood.......???? im not usre if the things i checked wer ebig fuses or relays........thanx

 

can you please tell me where the relays are located at???

 

Try over by the windshield washer resevoir and also by the battery (i think) the best think is to check you owners manual, it goes into detail exactly where all of them a located and which relay is which.

 

ok after 2 hrs of going through the wires i found out that all this crap was from a damn fuse.....well to tell u the truth the fuse was blown but for somereason when i used my fuse tester the light came on....needless to say i ripped out a lot of electrical **** that could have been avoided if i used my head a lil bit more.......

 

ok its 12 43 am and i just got home from hoceky so i figured it would be a good time to put my cd player back into my car and everything is good until i turned on the radio....i couldnt hear anyhting from the speakers....i checked the wires in the back they are all taped up and i dont see any loose connections....i checked all my audio fuses and they seem to be ok........i dont know what going on this electricla problem was ****ing me off for a while i finally get it fixed and now i cant hear anything from my speakers so i do not know where to begin......maybe i hooked up the wires wrong from the cd player to the wiring harness??? i put the yellow memory wire to yellow off the harness then i put red and red together for power.....one red is accesories the other red was 12 volt power........and i connected the 3 blue remote wires........all the speaker wires are wired correctly.......i dont know what swrong can anyone help???

 

Sorry, I don't have a copy of the wireing diagram laying aroung anywhere. But, just because you hvae wires color matched, that doesn't mean that it is right. I think the harness is probably Metra, and your headunit is Pioneer. I would definitely recheck your wiring to make sure you have power and everything else going to the right place on the headunit. I know I have had two or three HU's that used at least one yellow for power or memory power - that's what supplies powers to the clock and presets.

 

i knwo that the colors do not always go to gether but i just figured u guys knew what i meant.......n e way i double checked my connections and still no sound from speakers.........cd player works and the pre sets save when the car is turned of so i know the power and memort wire ar hooked up correctly.......still no sound though......
