radio not working
 

:confused:anyone jumpstart their hhr and now my radio doesnt work,no power,no sound no nothing.fuses are ok took to dealer to see if it needed to be reprogramed that wasn't it. they said they would have to look further.could it be a bad ground sumwhere.dealer said it wasnt communicating ecm or sumthing like that.any ideas?

I have seen things like this happen at times. try to reset the systems by unhooking the battery for 5 min. some times this works.

try what lucky said but it sounds like it may be a wiring issue

did that didnt work.dealer said he would have to check out ground and sum other things.i was thinking of running a ground off back of radio to a suitable ground?think that mite work?radio has no light or nothing but the fuse sparks a little bit when u pull it and put int back in so it must be getting power?also i did pull radio out and the cooling fan is working when i plug the radio in to harness

If the fan runs then there must be a ground. Sounds like a DOA radio to me. My sports car list has a problem with the radio in our cars if you take the radio out of the car with the battery attached. There is an internal fuse on the circuit board, basically a thin piece of wire, and it blows from the shock of the electrical load it sees when the plug is put into the radio. I wonder if something like this happened when you jump started the car?

how hard is it to put an aftermarket in i m thinking radio is doa too?

not hard at all just need the right harness adapter.
