Hey everyone, a few days ago I plugged in my Phone charger into my van and it started charging my phone for about 5 seconds. After that it started smoking and now the radio will not turn on. I can not play Cd’s or cassette tapes either. It wont even let me use an auxiliary cord to connect to my phone for music. I’m assuming its a blown fuse but I am not sure about that. I found the fuse box in the engine but Ive looked on the internet and every website says that that fuse box doesn’t have anything to do with the electronics on the inside of the vehicle but they don’t say were the other fuse box would be. I have researched more and websites say there is another one but they don’t say where. if you guys no where it is could you please let me know so i can get my radio fixed.
I had the same problem twice and I fixed myself, you are right is a blown fuse and is in the fuse box that is located in the engine compartment, you have to look for a yellow 20A fuse.stand next to the driver side front tire, with the head light to your left and driver door to your right,is 3 yellow fuses near to the battery check the one on the left that is the one for your radio. On the fuse box lid is marked as RDO/IPIGN. I drive a 02 grand caravan ES, I hope this help solve your problem, driving without music is not fun at all.
I have an 02 town and country and I changed the blower motor fan and resister and now it works fine but if I turn on the radio it blows a fuse can anyone help
I HAVE SOLVED THE SHORTING OUT PROBLEM OF THE RADIO SHORTING OUT, FLASHING, RESETTING, OR JUST PLAIN NOT WORKING!!! It is in the radio, behind the buttons. After six months of listening fools tell me to connect and disconnect, change fuses, etc, and pulling my hair, i finally removed the radio. using a star set of drivers i removed the front panel of the radio, and then the green board on the back of that panel, looking for dirt or bad connections. i found two flat, square, gold contact points on the green panel. there were tow very thin metal contacts on the button board that corresponded to these contact points. i noticed the metal was bent very far down, so i very gently placed a tiny screwdriver behind the contacts and gently bent them forward, where they would make a better contact with the little squares. i screwed the radio back together, re-installed it, and BAM. worked like a champ. lights, buttons, switches, the works. i’m going to go take a ride now and listen to my radio – on ALL the stations.
Thank you was absolutely correct plugged in phone charger and radio went out but clock time still worked
