Not the entire electrical system, just for the accessories

Aux cord, USB port, Cigarette Lighter Car Charger port, etc


I know it has something to do with the Fuses, or does it?

I need someone like @Luken to give me advice on how to fix the problem. I got a feeling some mechanic will overcharge me for fixing this small problem :francis::camby::pachaha:

A fuse is something you can check easily. Look in your car's manual to see where the fuse box is located. It will also tell you which fuse controls the equipment that doesn't work.

Pull the fuse out and if it looks like this

If its blown then look at the top, side without the prongs, and read the number. Go to an auto store and buy a fuse with the same number.

If it's not the fuse, those were known to have issues with the USB/Aux port module shorting out internally on occasion. If the fuse isn't blown, I can walk you through how to figure out what's wrong and how to fix it.



It was a blown fuse. Went to the auto store, it worked!!!!!


Put the Aux cord in, Listening to Regina Belle while cruising the streets :blessed: :blessed:
