2013 F150. We pulled the fuse to the radio because it was intermittent & doing weird stuff, crackling noises, LOUD POPS. The internet said the problem is a solder joint inside the radio. After pulling the fuse... all it's lights went dead & we were good for 3 weeks.This morning, a religious radio station is coming through the door speakers? We opened & closed the driver door, it stopped for second, then came back on. Then.. we found we could turn the volume down with steering wheel volume control only! What the actual F? I thought pulling the fuse TO THE RADIO would eliminate it? Original owner in Ct., not a flood truck from down south.
So just a heads up as you check each fuse they are tiny and you are standing on your head. But once you check a dozen related fuses you should be mad enough to hit the radio four or five times... fixed mine. Radio is prone to solder joint failures!
My cd player and display is all jacked up clock is blinking and wont play radio, bluetooth, aux or cds. My cd player motor also ejects continuously. Any help?
0:59 Fuse #9. I pulled because the radio wouldn't shut off with the key, on a used truck, and the heater/defroster came on in HIGH!😂 Had to put it back.
I appreciate your video, allowed me to verify no burned fuses on a 2012 F150 with flashing clock dead radio. One suggestion for your video, the fuse cover holds a fuse puller that works better than those needle nose pliers.
Did you just replace the radio? I tried baking my radio hoping it was old faulty soldering but it didn't work so im guessing a replacement is needed. Still haven't checked fuses admittedly.
@@ericmendoza6261 Sounds like your doing things backwards. The fuses would have been the first and easiest step. Baking the motherboard is a last hope effort, and has risks of destroying the radio. In my case, the hail Mary worked... for a few months. I'm not going to try it again and am shopping for a replacement now.
Thank you for the video. My radio works with the steering wheel controls only. It stopped working with the controls on the dash. Any ideas what the problem is?
Mine is the same issue. I have taken the factory stereo out , the main power wire is good but I can’t get any power from the power source when you turn on the key. Any ideas???
I have a 2013 fx4. I took out the radio to add a t harness and noticed the harness has been messed with by the previous owner. Now i have no power to truck with the key being on or off.
can you please help me?! the radio buttons on my 2007 f150 xlt lariat dont light up. the radio plays fine and works perfectly, but the volume and all the buttons dont light up at all. the buttons for the ac and all that work. also, the volume and seek on the steering whell dont work. is it a fuse or what? im lost. please help if you can buddy. im on facebook if you need to contact me. ive never asked a question on youtube so i dont know how this works. i subscribed to your channel so i might get an alert but i dont kinow for sure. my name is jimmy cunningham in birmingham alabama. thanks dude
My 2013 f150 radio says usb when I plug it in but goes right bavk to playing the radio even when I use the 3.5mm plug it goes right back to the radio do you think a hard reset is needed?
I could need some help. My truck had a working display picture and radio. I turn it on and now the displays gone but the radio works fine. Any solutions?
Me too, dude. Just happened today. I'm afraid to disconnect the negative battery terminal like some have suggested because I will lose all of the programmed stations and if that does't fix the display... that'll be a PITA to get back. Such a bummer
@@JerkyTreat mine just doesn’t work anymore. Idk if the display cord burnt out or something melted. I’d have to check. But good to know u have a similar problem
Whats the big plug in above the fuse box I have a 2013 Ford f150 stx and it won't start or turn over it just clicks one time from that fuse box location but if I unplug that big plug in it will start do you know what that plug in is
Wondering if you can help me out. I have a 2013 f150. installed a aftermarket radio. I would like to have it come on with my remote start so I can have my climate controls on with remote start. Do you know how I can make this radio power up when I have my truck running with remote start. I have asked the dealer if there is a option in forscan and they told me there is no option to do this.
Man my radio quit working but my clock flashes and my temperature thing works my wipers come on when I start my truck now my ac went out again after I replaced the fan and motor
Ho I have a ford f150 2010 and my radio has no audio at any sources , I already check fuses an everything looks good I also restored factory and still have no audio
I replaced the first radio in 2013 f150 at 100k. 2nd one just went at 170k. Crap stereo systems. My 04 explorer has 269k. Time never synced right. My 98 explorer screen crapped out at 100k. Ford seems to get roped into some cheap vendors for electronics. Thanks ford.
Stock Radio quit working. Installed a Sony Head Unit. Worked for 3 weeks. Randomly shut off and wouldn't work. After watching this video, I removed fuse 38 and checked good and reinstalled and it started working again. It wasn't loose. What could have happened? It almost looks like a fusible link in that spot.
@@ccrostelli I'm checking a part in my door that connects most of the door wiring. I'm having problems with the speakers and door locks too. I watched a video of a guy taking his radio apart and putting it on the oven too. As crazy a that sounds others said it worked for them.
I've got a 2013 F150 and am completing an amplifier install with the stock head unit. For the amp turn on wire (blue) I've used a fuse tap to plug it into fuse #38 and it seems to be working because it's powering my amp. I'm trying to understand what fuse #19 (dsp/amp) would be used for. Is it better to tap into #38 or should I tap into #19?

Found a blown fuse, thank you
thanks for this! Just got my stereo working again because of this video
At this point might as well check all fuses lol but good video bud 👍
Excellent video!!! Thank you

@@Prodigy_1984_ did you ever figure out what was wrong with it? Having the same problems now
I have a 2013 F350 and it helped
My entertainment system & clock were out for FOUR YEARS then just suddenly decided to start working again! Please explain that one to me😂

Not if it's a used truck and someone has already misplaced them.

They way it was and how long it was going out I don't think it'd ever be a fuse in that scenario.

Thanks a lot bro Ive been trying to find the fuse to use and because of you it's now working
What fuse tab did you use? I bought one for a low profile mini fuse and I can’t plug it in. I bought it at auto zone. Can you send me a pic?
Question - I 0:05 have to use both ports on the back of my stock radio , if I’m installing an aftermarket ?
