HELP! I changed a speaker while the car was running and now I hear nothing!

fuse for the stereo is in your regular fuse panel...on the plastic cover it will list which one is for the radio.

even if you did fry the stock stereo, $100 will get you a decent CD reciver. if you are only spending around $100, make sure you get a semi quality entry level unit like a pioneer, kenwood, clarion,ect. I would advice against cheap-o decks with more features than a single 1/8" input and a cd reciver & am/fm tuner...to get fancy displays companies sacrifice quality and longevity for bells and whistles.

I apologize but I should have mentioned that I already have an aftermarket HU - a Pioneer. It works just like before only it's completely silent. Wouldn't a blown fuse render the unit completely inoperable as opposed to just the sound? Unless the fuse is only for the amp. This is why I want to check if the preamps work to put an external amp because I don't want to get yet another stereo.
