    It is a vrvd640G. I have had 2 people try and fix it and it just won't work.

  • moochie10169 Aug 12, 2009

    It is an aftermarket kind.

  • moochie10169 Aug 12, 2009

    I can get power to the stereo but I get no sound. I have a wire stereo adapter for a 2002 Dodge Durango.

Is this a factory stereo or an aftermarket kind?

  • Anonymous Aug 12, 2009

    If you have a speaker and some wires why not connect them to see that it works? Sometimes the amplifier inside the radio maybe bad. Bench test it first to confirm. If you confirm the amplifier inside is no good, you have two option. Ones is the dissolder the amp inside and replace it, or just use the audio output with rca connectors, and buy a seperate amp that has for channells. Preferably the kind with two input but you can connect four speakers. Remember to bench test the radio first. Meaning test it outside the car on a table. Get you some wires and a battery, and at least one speaker. The reason for a bench test is you can shed some light into wether the radio is the problem. Note that if you decided to change the amp chip inside the radio, it is not very easy, you will need desoldering wick a soldering iron and some solders. Also the part probably cost somewhere around 20 bucks, and an electronic parts store may have to order them which could take up to two weeks to arrive. If an electronic parts store have them availble that would be good.

I cannot find a color code stereo wiring diagram for my 1998 ford explorer sport with # f87f-18c815-ca factory radio/cd player. I'm trying to install a different stereo and I have wirs that I have no idea...

If the speaker wires are very small then they are likely amp wires, the amp is usually under the passenger seat on those vehicles, there should be a plug behind your stereo that has the bigger wires, that's where the amp attaches to your car harness, if you un-plug that harness and attach your stereo to those wires it should work fine.
Hope this helps.

Radio display not working

From the way your post sounds, I'd say the dealership is correct.
You could try aftermarket radio, of course that would mean, remove and install yourself.
There might be a stereo install shop close to you? I guess you could call and get an estimate.
I just looked at crutchfield.com on the internet, they have radios they say will fit your vehicle for 50 bucks or less. I don't about the cost of shipping and handling?
I'm not pushing Crutchfield, I'm sure there are many stereo web sites.
Walmart may have stereos, I don't if they will fit your vehicle? Look around. Get install estimates.

I have an 02 ford explorer, the previous owner had a custom sound system installed. He took allof trhe custom speakers and amps out but left the stereo in,but it does'nt play. the stereo work ands powers...

sounds the like the vehicle had an oem amplifier that was removed, most after market stereo installers will trace the speakers wires individually by continuity to by pass the factory amplifier and wire the new head unit to the vehicles speakers, if the harness has been spliced or factory amp removed, you will need to check if the amplifier still exists (usually under passenger rear seat sometimes located in trunk area) and see if the harness has been bypassed. if so you will have to reconnect the harness by color code in order to use the factory head unit

Installing an aftermarket stereo, spliced the wires and have everything connected including the remote wire to the factory amp wire but still no sound.

There is no remote wire on these newer trucks....03 and up....u have to buy the harness....although i didnt....i have an 03 gmc sierra and just pulled the schematic and matched the wires. And there is no programming to do on an aftermarket stereo.....I work for GMC and we cant program aftermarket stereos......if u buy the right harness ...and its over $100 then everything should work just fine.....and this does not disarm ur alarm system either....mine still works fine....hope this helps

Honda car stereo

I won a 2004 Honda Civic.
I had a bad battery and my car would not start. I had someone jump start it and it now has a new battery. The car runs fine but the stereo will not play am/fm or CD's. Regardless of what I do I get an "Error E code"

Please help.
