A reason not obvious could be the trunk light bulb which is on the same circuit. We had a case where the bulb looked good, but the filament was loose and would sometimes connect ok and sometimes short. The only case where the fuse would blow was when you opend the trunk AND the filament decided to short. Prior to diagnosing this, the dealer told us it was the radio which we had removed, but which didn't solve the problem. or at least rules out another part of the puzzle.
i have a 95 Spirit and have the same problem. It is getting power to the radio (back lit, and tape player will rewind, but the clock display doesnt work, and the radio doesnt work (which sucks). Sometimes it will turn on when I start my car, but once the car is running, there is 0% chance of the radio coming on, even if I start banging around the radio. THis leads me to believe that is not a loose wire, but something in the ignition? Any input would be appreciated! I to had the same prob with the radio in a 90 Caravan which also carrys the same radio setup as the Dodge Spirit... its a short in the radio that aventually developes... theres nothing wrong with wiring... i took the radio setup out of my 92 Spirit (cause trans went out) and put it into the Caravan and still works fine, so its not a wiring prob... just a prob with the radio itself.
Check to make sure that your power wire on the radio is not grounding to the body of the radio. this will cause a short and thus blow the fuse.
A short in the wiring.
"Radar" comes from RAdio Detection And Ranging. If it didn't use radio it would be called something else.LIDAR (LIght Detection And Ranging) is laser instead of radio. That uses light.
If you mean can you plug a radio into an outlet controlled by a light switch, the answer is yes, provided the radio does not draw more current that the circuit can supply. (This would not apply to your standard household radio, but only to a high powered unit.)
i replaced the head unit and the fuse stoped blowing.
you probally have a bad wire that is shorting out and blowing your fuses.
Short in the wiring or one of the bulb receptacles.
That would probably be bad valve seals. It would depend on the vehicle as to how easy or hard it would be to repair.
Pull the light bulbs out and check the bulb sockets for corrosion. If there is none, spend the money and change the bulbs first. Even though a light may work, it could be shorting also. It may also be in the dashboards light system because the tail lights and dash ights run on the same circuitAnswerHas the radio been changed? because also remember there's a wire that goes to the radio and if it not used, may be grounding out on something
Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation similar to visible light. If there were 2 light sources with different color light you would not have any problem seeing both colors. It is the same with radio waves on different wavelengths.
you could have a short between the two.
