    What's up everyone. I was hoping not to be in this spot but here I am.
    I just finished installing a pioneer dmh1500nex and meastro rr2 as well as a kicker hideaway. The sound system sounds fantastic and it's all working great.
    Put it all back together and...
    It was all working for a little while and...
    No heater, no ac, no power windows, no sunroof, no heated seats and my radio doesn't work in the acc and resets itself each time.
    Rear window works all interior lights work guages work. What a bummer. So i checked my inside fuse box and have many fuses blown. Probably 6-8 what the hell could of happened?

    Maybe a power wire shorted to something? Maybe a pinched wire during re-assembly finally contacted metal.

    Be careful with this. You could cause (could have caused) damage to the fuse block (among other things) which is (according a to a Car Care Nut video I watched recently) about a $750 + repair.

    I'd pull everything out and, unless something was obvious, I'd take it to an audio shop for the reinstall.

    Were you able to get the issue sorted out? Sorry that I don't really have any input specific to your issue but I did have a question for you. You mentioned that you are using a kicker hideaway sub as part of your system. Is it the 8' or the 10" I am considering the 10" but want to get some kind of verification that it will fit under the seat without any fitment issues. Thanks!

    Was also looking for an update but the initial poster has not been online since 2024.

    Love it when a first (and only) time poster's thread title is "Help!", like they're off some trail in the woods somewhere, or hanging off a cliff and need rescuing. Then we hear they blew up their electronics with some out-of-their-league install, and we never hear another peep.
