A week ago went to unlock doors with keyfob nothing no click. Started the car locks work radio not on or the climate dash is blank. (With car on) I thought weird turned the car off click the key fob nothing. Tried to move seats nothing. Turned car to acc got power to everything but no radio or climate dash.

air conditioning works and blows cold. But can’t see the climate dash. So I go to YouTube yes check the fuses from videos under hood and dash and passenger. Checks all fuses and they are good for fuse checker tool light turned on. So I followed a video on taking the radio out all wires look good. Then I saw forums on here and no solution. So I’m reaching out to see if maybe someone has a bit of insight. Is there a module. I also saw the radio controls the locks.

if I can maybe find the power wire or ground to the radio maybe that will fix? Also it’s like if I turn the car off at idle the gauges just sit like the power to the entire car just killed instantly.

 

how did you check the fuses? did you try to use a test light or a continuity tester using your multimeter?

 

I used a test light. I don’t have much electrical stuff I wouldn’t know how to use a multi.

 

Went to the junk yard today pulled drivers side fuse box and passenger side fuse box and the wiring harness just for the radio and climate unit. Paige $30 for everything. Was going to snatch the srs module but I would have to program it. I just left it. Now I’m going to install and see what happens. Also where would the MCU be I was looking at a wiring diagram and it mentioned MCU. Also last question where would the most popular grounds be for the head unit(radio) head unit.
