Hello friends,
I am new here and its my first post
I have a Honda Civic 98, 1.5 vtec, sedan.
got myself into a problem, i lost voltage to CD player and clock!
Bought 2 sets of parking sensors. One set for back bumper which i installed and connected to rear light so its working only in reverse. This installation has been working for months. Everything is good with it.
Problem started here:
I thought i could do same for front bumper. Installed all 4 sensors in front bumper, install a switch in series with + line.
- goes also throw the switch since switch has a diode to indicate when it is turned on.
+ and - goes to parking sensor brain, turned on power, on switch and parking sensors are working!!!
BUT, lost power to CD player and clock
The dumb thing i did during installation was: not disconnecting battery during installation. (i was careful during connecting cables)
CD player and sensors in front are powering from same wire. checked internal fuse of CD player... it is Ok. (checked all fuses in car, each and every fuse is good. its very strange for me that same cable can power one thing but not other!
even if i turn off front sensors, CD player and clock still dont work.
where should i look for to detect powerlose problem.
Thanks in advance
