Coming back from a car show today, I heard a little pop by the fuse panel and I lost my radio and speedometer.
I replaced a blown 10 amp fuse for the radio but still no radio.
I also replaced a blown 10 amp fuse for the battery (fuel pump relay-oil pressure switch feed) as listed in my manual
even tho I have no problem with the car running. Still no speedo.

ANY help will be appreciated.

I think a fix will be if you were to register for the next 1/2 mile shootout in florida. You can challenge as many hondas to 160 mph roll races as you want. Will you register?

Aftermarket radio that has been in the car for years and has not been removed for any reason for years.

The instrument panel has the digital set up from Tom Sweet and ONLY the speedo lost lighting.
I assume the speedo is working, I just can't see it.

But we don't know how it was wired......so it's tough to troubleshoot. Here is the factory way.....note 2 fuses to the radio.

According to the manual, there is a 20A ( or 25A depending on which page you look at) BAT fuse that provides constant power to the Radio, as well as other devices. It is on the fuse box, third row down, third fuse across. I found mine had the wrong fuse (10A, Blown). Might take a look. Just for reference, the Fuel Pump fuse is on the top row, second fuse across, 10A.

Gall757---As best as I can remember, an adapter was used to connect the radio to the factory connector.
I did not cut and splice wires.

darbysan---thanks for the info. I will be checking and replacing fuses as the day progresses.
