Stock OEM Radio help - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #76009 3 posts Started by mkernz22
So today I got my lights from superbrightleds.com and installed them on my gauge cluster. Everything worked fine and I noticed nothing else was wrong. I just went for a quick drive around my neighborhood to see how they looked in the dark. I pulled back in my driveway and I turned all my lights back off. As I was getting out, the backlights in the radio that only turn on when the driving lights are on, stayed on. Everything else was dark except for part of my radio. I took the bezel off and unplugged the clock, and that's when the lights on the radio went out. I plugged the clock back in, and part of the radio lit up again...
It has never done this before and I'm so confused. Also, my radio barely gets any reception now. I don't know what is up with that either, it worked fine this morning...
I'd appreciate it if someone could help me out.
MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS PLUGGED IN FULLY.. SOMETHING PROBABLY GOT HALF UNPLUGGED AND YOU HAVE A GROUND LOOP GOING ON.

I'll double check my gauge cluster tomorrow after school. I'm suspecting that will be the probable cause because that is the only thing I unplugged and replugged today. Thank you! smile.gif
