Stereo wont work
i came home one night with my stereo working fine and then the next morning it wouldnt power up. It isa 98 civic ex and an aftermarket stereo. All the fuses are fine and there is power going into it because i tested it with a light bulb thing ( not sure what its called). anyone know what this could be? or is it just the radio (i hope not lol)

RE: Stereo wont work
Did you check the fuses under the hood too? I think the constant 12V (yellow wire on an aftermarket stereo) is powered from there.
Edit: If you have power on both the red and yellow wires, and a good ground, there may be a short in the speaker wiring, which will shut down many aftermarket stereos. Or of course the final conclusion is the head unit itself is defective.
