You'll need a pair of tools to remove this radio, available @ your local car parts store. They're u-shaped and about 3-4 inches long. There inserted in the two holes on either side of the radio. Either pull them together or spred them slightly while pulling the radio towards you. This will release the spring clips on the sides of the radio.
i need to disable jeep factory alarm 1997 cherokee
you can install a factory radio if you can find one or you can order a direct replacement from a company called biketronics you can find them on line at biktronics.com it is a better radio than the factory one
Have you checked the aerial is pluged in to the radio. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- If it's the stock stereo, these go bad eventually......as well as the speaker ports on the back of the stereo... Just replaced mine with an after-market stereo for $99 at Circuit City.... Works fine now...
You can remove the radio unit from your 1997 Nova with a flat head screwdriver and a Phillips head screwdriver. You will not need any other tools to complete the task.
I Have a 1997 VW Cabrio, which is esseintially a convertable Jetta/Golf. I purchased the car used & it had an aftermarket stereo in it when I purchased it and the stock alarm worked. I think it is possible, because your stereo was stolen & The wires were cut, you may not be using a wiring harness. Using the appropriate harness is probably the key to having your alarm work w/the aftermarket stereo. My suggestion is to have the aftermarket stereo proffesionally installed. VW's, in my experience, tend to be picky machines, even though I love them. Before having the Pioneer installed it also may be wise to check your local salvage yards that have either a Jetta, Golf or Cabrio with the same configuration of your model and cut the factory harness out of the wrecked vehicle. If you take that to a stereo shop or VW dealership/Import professional they could wire that in, so that the appropriate harness to convert your stock stereo wiring to a pioneer could be accomplishied by simply pluging your stock harness into an aftermaket harness to fit your new pioneer stereo. I know it may sound complicated by the way I am describing this to you, but it really isn't. Finding the stock harness, ,which I would bet was stolen w/your stereo may be the most difficult hurdle for you. If you can't find one locally, there are search engines online for salvage yards and you could find on that way. A note of intrest for you regarding installing aftermaket stereos into VWs: The heat vents in my 97 run directly above the head unit and if you run your heater for a while, like during winter, the heated air blowing out directly above your stereo may cause problems. Just another VW quirk. I had to have small cooling fans installed on my stereo b/c the heater would overheat my stereo if I drove the car for aprox. over an hour or more. I'd hate to see you get the stereo installed properly, have the alarm working correctly & then boom, your stereo dies b/c it overheated. You can tell when your stereo overheats b/c you can "hear" it. I definitely suggested having these cooling fans installed to protect your investment. I wiswh I could explain this better, but when it comes down to it, you need that stock harness & it would be wise to have the new stereo proffesionally installed, even if you know how. VWs can be picky & this is one of those things your better off to have a professional handle. It will avoid alot of frustration, & in the end will probably save you money. Good luck. I wish I could help more.
how can i remove stereo from honda crv 1997?
there is definitley a 1997 model forester - i have one myself!!! im about to rembove my stereo aswell so if i find anything out il let you know..... do you know the factory speaker sizes by any chance?
You have to remove the panel which goes around the stereo and compartment. You will see four screws which are holding the holder with the stereo and compartment. Remove the screws and take out the holder. You might need to disconnect wire harness and the antenna before you will be able to pull the holder out. The stereo is sitting on 2(4) screws which keep it in the holder.
On a 1997 Ford Explorer, the stereo amplifier is located above the rear wheel on the passenger side. It can be accessed by removing the side panel.
if your not going to use the old factory stereo, take it apart and you will find that the circit board is labled where it plugs in. Or go to your nearest stereo shop and get a wiring harness for $20.
I don't have a answer I'm asking you

The Stereo Bus was created in 1997.
Christmas in Stereo was created in 1997.
On a 1997 Explorer, in location # 20 of your fuse panel, there is a 7.5 amp fuse for the radio, and in location # 29 there is a 10 amp fuse for the audio system.I'm not sure if there also is a fuse on the back of your radio.
Remove your radio it is located on the back it is 7.5amps, it is not with all the other fuses next to the steering wheel.
