Same thing happened to me. You need to replace the 10amp fuse under the hood in the fusebox behind the battery. It will be one of the ones in the yellow casing. It shows a little music symbol on the fuse map on the underside of the lid you remove. That should be your problem.

You need to go to an auto parts store and buy a fuse remover. Basically it looks like a plastic set of tweezers. Ask the sale clerk at the desk if you can't find it. That fuse is nearly impossible to remove without it. Hope that helps.

I don't recal...I actually bought a fuse puller (little plastic tweezers) that had a fuse tester on the end....found the dead one and replaced it.

nonono i kno what ur saying...you have to pull up on the yellow thing holding the 2 fuses...then you can pull the fuse out..the radio is the first fuse coming from the front of the car. your gunna need like needle nose pliers to pull out the fuse...its a really dumb way of holding the fuses..whoever made that should be smacked. i dunno why thats even like that.

are you sure its not a 10 fuse..meaning 10 amp i guess.....if its 100 fuse...i'm guessing that would mean 100 amp......and i dunno if the car has one unless its the main battery fuse...(i don't kno that rating) but then the car wouldn't start...and yes you can get these fueses at any autoparts store.....they are mini fuses...the small square ones with the 2 prongs coming out of it.....

also it is pretty hard to get those fuses out of the yellow holder.....you really gotta rip them out....a tip would be to pull it up...then get a very small flat head screwdriver and push the 2 clips holding the fuse in apart......you'll see what i mean......its a dumb design....
