Hey Tommy==Check the fuses. Evidentally there is one blown and you will have to find out what caused it. Good luck Joe
Most likely poor wiring.
The CD player should be in the stereo, if you bought the car used it may not have come with option. The CD changer option would be located below the stereo
poor grounding, very common on Chrysler products.
the stereo is probably done. it would probably cost more money to have the stereo looked at than to buy a new radio.
If it is an aftermarket stereo then i would say that the installer tied into the dashboard illumination or headlight power wire for 12 volt power for the stereo.
All my dashboard lights won't work on my 2000 Holden Vectra. Cigarette lighter, stereo, speedo, heater control lights and gear selection lights are all in the dark. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If it is like my 2001 you would pull the head lamp switch out when the headlights are on
they cant you would have to go to the main control panel (fuse box) and you would have to replace the fuse
Most likely a fuse(s) check them all if you havn't already
A guess would be that someone wired the power to the stereo into the circuit for the dome or courtesy lights that run off the passenger door switch. Might want to find a separate circuit in the fuse box and pull the stereo power from it.
it is possible that u may have used a wire that is also used in the same circuit as the dash lights which would cause a parrellel path for the current and therefore might not be neccesarily supplying enough current to the dash lights was the stereo put in by a proffesional
Having just finished spending 4 days tracking wires to install a stereo in a 95 SL1, I would suggest going to your local car audio store and purchasing a wiring harness. It'll run you about $15 and save you LOTS of headaches. Saturn's stereo harness is an intergal part of the dash wiring, so there are things going through your stereo that have nothing to do with it; i.e. dash lights, back up lights, door chime, etc. The harness will incorporate all of that for you.
