Radio not working after changing fuse

My dashboard lights (e.g. outside temperature, speed) and radio stopped working all of a sudden on my Suzuki Ignis. I found that a fuse was dead, so replaced it. The dashboard indicators are working again, but not the radio. It says 'code' instead of displaying the radio station. Anyone able to help please ?

    has the fuse blown since and is this a factory radio? Do you know what caused the amprage spike?

You must enter the security code. Check owners documents.

Yes as Steve says, but check your handbooks & manuals folder first to see if the dealer left the code stuck inside the radio hand book firstly, if not then contact the dealer as Steve said, hope this helps

SOURCE: suzuki ignis 2002 oxgen sensor functions

It gets pretty hot in there, and although hardly any manufacturers specify replacement intervals for oxygen sensors, they play a critical role in providing the ECM with acurate data for best running performance/economy. Change it, as the savings in NOT changing it will be soon eroded by increased fuel usage.

SOURCE: Hi I have a suzuki ignis.My display has gone blank

The wiring may have gone bad in your car. Usually blown fuse and loss of power are the result of this. You may need to inspect the wiring loom underneath the dashboard where most of the wiring for the mentioned devices are located.

Hello bishoppar.

As with most electrical repairs this is almost impossible to tell you costs involved.
It will depend on where and how the short took place and how far the damage has extended.
If it is one wire shorted to ground it may not be as bad. But if one wire shorts into another it can damage several circuits.
In one case I have seen where a starter circuit shorted, burned into several others. This started a small fire in the engine compartment. The insurance wrote off the vehicle due to repair costs.
Most certainly this will not be the case in your situation, just an example of the variation.

You will need to trace the short and have it repaired.
A good tech should be looked for in the repair as it will save you in the long run.

If you would like further advise on this, please ask me in a comment here.
Thank you for using FixYa.

05 Chevy Equinox FM radio suddenly stopped working .How can fix it? AMradio and XM radio still work.

I'd recommend starting with the fuse, if you haven't checked it already.

Your vehicle's radio uses a blue, 15amp fuse. It's possible the fuse is blown and needs to be replaced.

The fuse box will be under the dashboard, behind the cover, on the passengers side of your center console.

If the fuse is intact (not blown), the radio has either failed or there's an electrical issue that'll need to be inspected by someone who can diagnose vehicle electrical issues.

Can't find the fuse box under the driver's side dash on my 2000 suzuki grand vitara. my radio/clock not working and dome light does not come on when the driver's side door is opened.

Its below the Dashboard, on the left side of your knee. You have to use a torch & locate it from under the Dashboard, Its roughly near to the Clutch Pedal.
Here, it looks like this: (The Black one is the Fuse box) ba18901.jpg

No sound on radio

The car also has amplifiers. Check all the fuses besides the radio. That might fix your issue.
