Really? It only lists one 15A fuse for the radio.

The switched (main power) wire and unswitched (memory) wires are on different fuses.

Do you know which one the other fuse is on? The only one listed for radio I checked and replaced just in case but was fine. Nothing else was listed for the radio that I could see.

I touched the power wires to the battery terminal and grounded it and it turned right on. So something is messed up either with the harness or in my car somewhere. No idea what it could be that would stop working like that all of a sudden besides a fuse.

Time to start pulling fuses. Like other mentioned, and I seem to remember there are two fuses that come into play here. I believe I just laid upside down in the foot well with a flashlight and a fuse puller and just pulled fuses.

Thanks guys. I pulled all in cabin fuses and found one that was busted. So guess that was the 2nd fuse as mentioned above.
Radio turned right on. Not sure why it blew though.
I still need to try the DCI to see if it will work now but haven't had a chance. Bob@ Modifry emailed me and also said about that 3.5 plug you really need to make sure it is pressed in fully. Might not have been as you really gotta push that thing in hard it seems to go flush.

Trim some of the 3.5mm plug so that it fits. That is what I did.

Glad you found the fuse and have that issue resolved.

You're plugging and unplugging all of this stuff w/ the battery disconnected right?

It doesn't look like there is anything I need to trim. The plug can go completely in as it is. Gotta push it hard but goes as far as possible. Still no functionality out of the DCI but radio is working great!
