Hey guys Im not a member or anything and i didnt want to guy page by page looking for it but does anybody know what i can do? I have a 1995 and i just installed a sony deck...the guy that owned it before me put in a pioneer deck...but my question is with the adaptor i bought the ontly time the deck works is if i pute all the red ignition power wires and the yellow constant power wires together...and there is another wire comming from the direction of the steering column that has a fuse on it anybody had this problem before? to answer a few questions first...No its not the deck the previous deck was wired the exact same way...and the only reason i want to know is b/c both decks lost everything (time/preset channels) when i turn off my truck. can anyone help?

You have lost power to the constant 12volt circuit for the radio. In 95 I think the wire in the truck was either pink or solid red. use a test light or volt meter to verify both the constant and switched accessory 12 volt wires have power. Sounds like you have a blown fuse. Check the fuses in the fuse panel, especially the one for the dome lamp or clock circuits. Check the fuses in the power distribution center undere the hood too, if your truck has one. The fuse in the dash going to the steering column is very likely not a factory-installed fuse. Sounds like something the previous owner put in there. Trace it back & see where it goes or if it goes to the radio adapter he put in.
Good luck with it. Let us know what happens.

I'm having a similar problem. Which fuse ended up being the problem? The one going to the steering column? Ironically my cab lights dont work either so this might be the problem. And with the decks losing memory... did your trip meter reset by any chance?

Check the 5 amp F2 fuse under the hood. It's a little blade fuse, like the ones in the interior fuse box. Based on experience, it's the likely suspect, and nearly certain if the dome light and overhead console are misbehaving.
