I have a 95 Buick Le Sabre that had a factory stereo in it. Last night I took out the stereo to put in a CD player I got from a buddy. The 16 pin connecter had really short wires so I did the stupid thing and only twisted the wired together and held them with electrical tape. When I wired up everything, I tested it out and it worked fine. But I had trouble getting the player into the mount. After I got it all in, I turned on the car and it didn't work. I took the player back out and one of the wires got detached from another wire. I twisted it back together and tried it again....still didn't work. I checked all the wiring and it still didn't work. I got nervous so just in case I put the old factory stereo back in which is an easy install and THAT DIDN'T WORK EITHER! On top of that the a/c control panel below it went out. Did I short circuit something? Could I have screwed up more than those two things? Am I able to fix this myself? AAAAAAAAAARRRRGH!

 

its most likey a blow fuse. get the manual and it will show you where the fuse panel is located and it will say which one is for the radio.

 

forgot to add replace it only with a fuse of the same value or less

 

mos likely the 10 AMP radio / HVAC fuse... and by the way, reaplcing a factory fuse with a lower rated fuse will only cause you problems... they are chosen for a reason.. higher is not desierable either.. replace it with what you take out.Mark
