Voting Question: Kenwood stereo wont work in my Subaru?

I have a 1998 Subaru Legacy Outback (limited). I just installed a new Kenwood CD player. I purchased the wiring harness and dash install kit (for "ease") Metra 70-8901 I've tested everything- Old radio starts right up New radio bench tested and works no problem Somehow the wiring harness is messed up. If I jiggle the yellow wire, the deck will make a noise as if it were looking for a cd and that's it. No lights, no audio, no other sounds, Nothing. All of the pins look clean functional and unbent. Other than very minor wire movement, everything is sturdy... I"m just not sure how/why I cannot get power... Oh yeah I did check all the fuses under the dash by left knee and under the hood in the 1 compartment on the right side (as your looking at the engine from in front of the car) and yes I grounded the black wire from the stereo harness to the chassis. more

Open Question: Itunes music on USB, would my radio be able to use the music on the usb?

My Ipod is going bad. I'm thinking about transferring all my music onto an extra USB I have laying around. I have this radio: http://www.crutchfield.com/p_113KDC208U/Kenwood-KDC-208U.html?tp=5684&nvpair=FFBrand%7cKenwood in my truck. I'm wondering, if I transfer all my music to the USB, and plug the USB into the radio, would the radio be able to play the music controllably? Would I be able to change folders, if I put different playlists in seperate folders and stuff? Or would it just play the whole list? Would this work at all? Thank you. -Maddenate. more

Resolved Question: How much is my car worth?

It is a red 2000 Toyota Celica GT. Milage is 141K but I recently had a new engine put in. It is a 2003 engine with only 8,000 miles on it and runs great. Automatic 4-speed trans. Options include power locks, power windows, security system, keyless entry, kenwood CD player with AM/FM radio, rear wiper, 50% tint. Does not have sunroof. Modifications: Black halo headlights, black tail lights, interior red LED lights, cold air intake, front strut bar, and carbon fiber dash kit. Paint is in pretty good shape for a 2000 model. No dents, was in a couple accidents, but no major damage, everything has been repaired. Tires still have over half the tread. I would use an online pricing site like kelley blue book, but I feel it gives an inaccurate pricing because of the new engine. I would like to get at least $6000 out of it, is this too high? more

Resolved Question: New radio install in 2004 Chevy Silverado 2500HD with Scosche GM09SR chime module, Dash lights wont turn off?

So I installed a new Kenwood KIV-BT901 in my truck and wired everything according to diagram and past experience. The head unit works and everything if hooked up to a constant power source (for testing purposes) but when I wired it correctly for the accessory power and constant power the radio does not have power even when truck is on. The dash lights are also constantly on now with the battery light. Don't turn off by themselves even with the doors open and keys out of ignition. Scosche techs said it could be a faulty module and I should send it back for a replacement, but I'm on a time crunch for the install. I think it has something to do with the wiring or possibly a bad fuse or a bad ground. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. more

i have a 1996 maxima with the bose system. the stock radio crapped out, so i hooked up a kenwood to it. everything worked perfectly. i then tried to swap the radio to a jensen uv10(7inch touchscreen) so it tried two speakersto see if it would work and they did, so while everything on(music playing) i plugged in the front right speaker and the sound stopped. so now when the radio is on, i get no sound. yes the amp wire is plugged in. i even just tried the left front speaker and i still dont get any sound. im like wtff?! each speaker has its own amp built-in and i checked it to see if there is anything blow and its perfect. i checked the fuses in the fuse box and they are fine. i need my music. someone please helpp me if you know whats wrong with it :(i checked the speaker fuse and its perfect. the speaker that i didnt plug in at all i tried alone and still didnt work, so the amps arent the reason. more

Resolved Question: Why does my headunit shuts off when I turn the bass and volume up loud?

I recently just bought a new kenwood head unit and installed it and it worked perfectly for about a month. When after a little while i would see the led light in the head unit start to dim and flash when the bass hit. After that the head unit wont even power on and the led would just blink every 5 seconds or so. After a month or so just to i decided to check all my fuses for the radio and the one in the head unit and they were all good but when i put the fuses back in the head unit worked, but when i turned the bass and volume up it shut off but imediatley turned back on. I have no clue if i need a new amp or what? Can somebody please give me some advice? Thanks! more

Voting Question: Why does my car keep dying?

I have a 2006 Honda Accord V6 Coupe and the battery has died on me twice when I get into it to go home from school. I took it by Advanced Auto Parts and had them check it with their computers, and the guy said my battery was in great shape and my alternator is perfect. I did not leave my lights on, but I did have a Kenwood Excelceon Radio installed. Could that be draining battery maybe? more
