I have a 96 honda accord and a friend installed an after market cd player now im not getting any power to my dash the gauges wont move and the lights arent on and my wondows wont roll up or down please help any suggestions?!?!?

 

Check Fuse No. 1 (10A) in the under-dash fuse/relay box.

Check Fuse No. 32 (15A) and Fuse No. 37 (7.5A) in the under-hood fuse/relay box.

 

Thanks it kinda just worked its self out idk what happened

 

ok so im guessing its a short somewhere cause it came on was working fine now its off again we checked all fuses they are fine and so are the relays i dont know much about cars but im guessing its a short somewhere

 

If the fuses are okay, it may be an "open" somewhere in the circuits.

The following is Honda’s narrative regarding Opens and Shorts:
"Open" and "short" are common electrical terms. An open is a break in a wire or at a connection. A short is an accidental connection of a wire to ground or to another wire. In simple electronics, this usually means something won't work at all. With complex electronics (such as ECM/PCMs) this can sometimes mean something works, but not the way it's supposed to.

You may have an "open" where there is a break at a connection or wire.

 

You may want to use a test light, voltmeter, etc. to see if there is power at the fuses.

Then check that the harness connectors at the under-dash fuse box are firmly in place. There are connectors on the front and back of the fuse box, it may be a connector in the back that is not fully seated.
