you should really utilize the search button more.

What probably happened was that the power wire for your radio touched something and shorted out some fuse somewhere. I'd start with checking all the fuses, and then you can start freaking out.

Check the fused with a meter> Check the ones under the hood?

Everythinng was fine underneathe the hood, took out the center peice with the radio attache traced the power and audio back to origin, had come undone from the back of the fuse box. :gotme got my buddy to use his technological skills and got everything back going right. :) I'm still learning about the 240 electrical jargon, pretty good under the hood though.
