My radio won't turn on, and when I checked the fuse box I didn't see anything labled 'Radio". Does anyone know which fuse it might be or if there is some other reason maybe that my radio doesn't work?

Check the fuse in the engine bay. It's labeled AUDIO/ALARM something along those lines.

I checked the fuse on the back of the radio and the one in the engine bay..both of them are ok.

Tibby01-by fuse number 9...did you mean fuse number 9 in the fuse box in the cabin?

The easiest - check all fuses. Just pick up a multimeter, on each fuse there are 2 small holes for multimeter contacts(pins). So you can check fuse without taking it out.

There are two fuses for radio:

under the dash fuse #14:

1----9
2---10
3---11
4---12
5---13
6---14
7---15
8---16



under the hood:

fuse................................fuse
fuse................................fuse
fuse................................fuse
=======================
====== yellow connector======
=======================

Xradio fuseX..... lamps fuse
not used...................... lamps fuse

Ok, well I check fuse #14 in the cabin and it was fine as well. So, anyone have any ideas as to what might be the problem?

check if your radio gets 12V first, this way you will know what is faulty.

if its an aftermarket radio I recommend checking the wiring for any lose connections. Check your ground and all that other good stuff.
