To hook up a radio you should actually locate the Acc. wire that comes off the ignition switch. There must be a wire or plug in the area where the radio fits and this should supply current when the key is selected to Acc and beyond. Connecting the radio anywhere else could damage computer circuits or other electronic components.

ALSO LEARN HOW RAP WORKS./
RAP IS this thing that allows things to work key off and a delay.
20 MIN RULE (

Retained Accessory Power (RAP) Circuit Description The retained accessory power (RAP) is a subsystem of the body control module (BCM). The RAP is designed to provide power to the following accessories when the ignition is in the run or accessory position, and up to 20 minutes when the ignition switch is in the off position.
  1. The power windows
  2. The radio
  3. The sunroof
  4. The overhead console
SO IS A RAP ISSUE CLEARLY.

USA ANSWERS ME ONLY UNLESS POSTER TELLS THE TRUTH AND NONE EVER DO.
EXPORT CARS ARE NOT THE SAME.
YES RAP CAN FAIL (KEY OFF FAILS) SURE BUT IS A WHOLE OTHER BALL OF WAX ,TESTING..

MY 1995 SILVERADO 1500 EXT. CAB TRUCKS

sounds like your hydraulic clutch has failed. I would reccommend an internal inspection of your transmission by a mechanic.

I have a 2003 Chevy Silverado Ext Cab Z71, no sound is coming out

Seat belt and any warning chimes do not come from the radio, they usually come from a unit under the dash, what you are describing is probabl;y a blown fuse problem. I would checkfuses with a teat light as some fuses may not appear blown.
