I was installing a amp in 98 exp and remote wire that was conctd to radio sparked while I was running it to amp, I thought i blew fuses and nope no blown fuse, I thought radio was blown so installed factory radio that worked two days ago, dont work either. Im not sure what else I can check I dont notice any other accessories that are not working. Thanks for your time.

Bert

Did you dheck fuse 6 under the hood and fuse 8 under the dash?

I checked all fuses under dash and hood none blown.

Bert

There should be power at the constant 12v at the white/purple and power at the black/pink with the key on. The amplifier should have constant power at the light green/pink wire. Check all the grounds too.

What if they have power and what If they don't have power?
Is it possible to run power from something else to radio

Bert

If there's no power, I'd try to find the problem. Bypassing with a new wire would make it work but I'd be worried about where the problem is and what could happen later.

That white/purple should have power all the time. There's another fuse under the hood, in a smaller panel behind the main fuse panel. There's a fuse in there that's probably blown. Lookon page 138 in the owners manual for the location.
