Hi guys,

After a stereo installation on my R33, my constant wire seems to be dead. It had also caused my clock to stop working. At first the clock was just resetting back to 1:00 but now it doesn't show at all.

Any idea if this is a fuse?

Can anyone recommend a decent auto electrician or car stereo installation place in inner Melbourne / Prahran area to fix this issue and install the stereo?

Regards,

David.

sounds like you grounded that constant wire and shorted a fuse... its pretty easy to fix, open up the fuse box and look for one that has broken...

it also sounds like you stole the constant wire from the clock... you should make your own from the battery...

tee hee, your welcome :(

i have asimilar problem except i couldn't get my stereo to work ... the clock is not working and i have checked the fuses and none are blown and clock still not working any ideas guys i want my clock and stereo lol

did you check your power wires? im a little drunk, so im not sure about anything, but check your power wires... run some wire straight from the battery to the 12V line on your headunit... if that works, then your power wires are Effed in the A somehow... run new ones...

you have to try both 12V and Acc, the headunit wont turn on without the Acc one attached... so if you chuck a 12V constant on that, and it works, it means your Acc is f**ked somewhere along the line...

either wire or fuse... run a new wire from the fuse to the head unit, if that works, that side of the power works... if that doesnt work, the 12V line to the Acc fuse is f**ked...

trial and error is fun :(

be careful :rolleyes:

also, more info helps sometimes :)

also, i hope that made sense, cause im not proof reading it...

its possible... but i think everything in that cluster uses the same fuse/power lines... your better off getting a long cable and going straight from the battery...

but try it, ive never had that exact problem, so give it a go...

man im getting jipped :rofl: my fuses are in the engine bay...

but yeah, theres 2 lots of fuses... when we say 'check fuses' we mean both lots... one is above your right shin when you drive, the other is either in your engine bay on the left (from drivers seat) or in the boot?
