radio/ heater core

[gilby7887]

ok so my i found out that my head unit is somehow wired into my heater core. so if i want to run my heat, it knocks out my radio, and vise versa. what would YOU do. I'm tired of blowing fuses.

No i'm not going up a higher amp fuse.

pick one or the other.

and i did not know that the heater core had wiring.

[gilby7887]

guess what i should be asking is what wire should i be looking for that will be the heater core that the radio is tied into.

[SCato]

as far as i know the only thing going to the heater core should be the metal wire. your using stock climate control?

[SCato]

when you say heater core do you mean the climate control?

[gilby7887]

I'm saying heater core cause when i blew the two 15 amp fuses for the heater core my radio goes out as well. Stock climate control

[SCato]

Try running it under a cold tap.

you realize that a heater core is a radiator style object that coolant flows through right? it's also located inside the HVAC box in the dash.

anyways.. sounds like you have wired up your radio to your heater controls.. probably the dimmer or the fan switch.
