OKAY I JUST INSTALLED OR LET ME SAY TRIED TO INSTALL A SYSTEM IN MY 8. the bad news is now i get no power to my hu and lcd screen doesnt light up no power to the ac controls but the fan still blows. i have check just about every fuse i know of to check. does anyone have any ideas on this one please god?

i bypassed the bose amp in the back? would that have anything to do with it?

i have installed before and this is stumping me i have no clue help p lease help

 

Try the fuse marked 'room' in the footwell.

 

already checked it i have lights the gauge cluster works everything works on the car just no power to the radio and ac controls. i also have a i have a kit for the lcd and controls and all that you can change the txt i just forgot what it was called . anyway ill check agin but i think its still a good fuse

 

may sound dumb but, are you sure you plugged everything back in securely?

 

yeah i thought that too but i went back and re did all the connections and everything. does anyone know where the head unit and lcd screen and ac controls get their power from?

 

A/C gets its power from the room 15a fuse, unswitched, and the accessory relay, switched, 7.5amp 'ACC' fuse.

A 7.5amp will blow if you just breath too heavy.....

 

same thing happened to me. Haven't had a chance to check it out but I will this weekend. I'll let you know if I figure it out. Let me know if you do before me. Please..

 

okay so i fixed my problem i wana say thanks to everylone that gave me some onfo i wouldnt know what i would do with out you guys sometimes lol.

now the fix lol i feel stupid but when i was spicing my metra harness into my factory harness i miss read the colors on the wires lol you know one is blue with a red line and the other is blue with a orange line lol well after time the red faded or the tape that mazda used on the harness when i took it off made it look lighter but after going threw all that found that i cut the power wire instead of the speaker wire lol

my bad guys but thanks

side note anyone know of any good ground points in the trunk for amps?

 

Connect your ground to the rear seat belt anchor.
