Hey everyone, my radio and overhead light wont turn on. A coworker of mine came by and tested all the relays and fuse box with a voltage tester. English is his second language. He didnt tell me which one was out. Which relay is connected to the radio? I wanna order parts of this. Would anyone know the relay number or part name?

Thanks!

Forget about the radio, you don't need it on to listen for the sound you hear while in 5th gear. Also, isn't your rear bumper falling off and don't you need winter tires still? Fix the hazardous problems then deal with the unimportant radio.

Kids these days ... priorities all screwed up.

Im looking at a pioneer double din right now.

http://www.crutchfield.com/p_130X520UI/Pioneer-FH-X520UI.html

anyone know the difference between the x520 and the x720? I compared them and they have the same exact specs.

I just compared them on Crutchfield and found the x520 has no BT capability whereas the x720 has BT built in.

Until you find the need to use BT for either calls or streaming music. I personally would prefer to have BT so if the fam needs to call me while on the road, I can talk freely. Not something I do all the time but nice to have when I need it.

But are you comparing apples to apples? Never bought a hu off of Newegg, do they include the wiring harness, dash kit etc for that price of $127 and free 2 day shipping? The x720 is $149 on Crutchfield and shows it fits a P5 but with modifications. http://www.crutchfield.com/p_130X720BT/Pioneer-FH-X720BT.html?showAll=N&search=pioneer_x720&skipvs=T

I put in a 10 amp and 15 amp fuse for Number 3 and number 8 fuse slots and my radio now works, and my overhead light works also. Thanks for all your help guys.
