Honda Car Forum

I was driving, not doing anything crazy, making a turn, didn't hit a bump, wasn't driving erratically, but all of a sudden the radio shut off, I thought it was just the station but then I looked and saw the clock was out as well as all the radio.































I would think its the fuse but when I went to go look at which fuse would be the right one none of them matched up to the center panel. Maybe I wasn't looking in the right place but I don't know what else it could be. Also thinking the wiring in the cd deck might have knocked something loose but I was driving regularly.































Thanks. 10 points to whatever answer is right.

It is most likely the fuse, I drive a 2001 and that used to happen to me all the time.

Check the fuse for the radio only. I had this same problem and ended up finding out it was a short, so I had to rewire the power for the clock and the radio. Turns out the clock and the radio get power from the same wire, so when the radio shorted, the clock did as well. Check that fuse, and if its popped, replace it, and if it pops again, you have a short on a power wire somewhere and will need to get a wiring schematic and find out where the short is. It's really a PITA to find a short in a honda, theres wires everywhere! But good luck, and hopefully it was just an old fuse that decided to randomly pop (it happens).

probably a loose connection to the head unit (the 12v constant). esp if it is an after market unit. i would pull the radio out and check/redo the connections.































p.s. keep the 10p ill take a beer, thank you.
