putting in aftermarket radio and need color codes for 1998 Hyundai Sonata GL L4-2.oL
Could be broke, or might just be a Hyundai radio. Check antenna, and cable from antenna to radio.
just shoutdown the key...
you could go to radio shack and get an installation kit for 96' elantra and it is self explanatory.
It does not have that option in the stock radio
The radio unit on a Hyundai Elantra is held in place by a mounting bracket found behind the center console. First remove the center console then remove the screws on the mounting bracket. The radio will be able to slide forward. Once pulled out remove the wire harness that plugs into the radio.
mine did same, 95 elantra. it was fuse for radio in fuse box. hope that helps.
To turn off the anti-theft radio system on a 1995 Hyundai Elantra, you typically need to enter the radio's security code. If you have the code, turn on the radio and follow the prompts to input it. If you don't have the code, you may need to consult the owner's manual or contact a Hyundai dealer for assistance, as they may require proof of ownership to help reset the system.
In a 2000 Hyundai Elantra, the fuse for the radio is located in the fuse box under the dashboard on the driver’s side. To access it, you'll need to remove the cover and locate the fuse labeled for the radio, which is typically labeled as "Audio" or "Radio." Checking the owner's manual can provide specific details and fuse ratings. If the fuse is blown, replacing it with a new one of the same amperage should restore power to the radio.
the fuses for the inside of the car is Dow under the dash just under the hood release bottom.

Try this site. I got the one for my 1998 Elantra and well as the alarm diagram. It was free and basically: click on Car Stereo Wiring Diagrams near the upper left of the page, click on Hyundai where all the makes are and then look to the right for the car you want. www.modifiedlife.com
