No power on yellow wire to Radio (red is ok)

Post by netmatt »

My radio stopped working in my Vibe, and so (thinking it was the radio, cause it was old) I got a new one, but that one does not work either. Cig stuff works fine, checked fuses no issues. Did a multimeter test on the red and yellow wires versus black (gnd) and the red has 12vdc, but the yellow has nada/nothing/zilch.

Is the yellow and red going back to/thru the same fuse? Any other thoughts/ideas on next steps? Is there another 12vdc alw on power I can jump in, if its a bad wiring issue? :?:

Nvm, it was a blown dome fuse under the hood.

glad you got it figured out

Are you going to keep the new radio or go back to the previous one, and which new one did you get?
