Stereo Not Working March 12, 2017, 10:53:21 pm Hi, this is a '96 Chevy LD with Panasonic dual post/cassette type stereo. It gets no power.The radio fuse in the van is good. I pulled out the stereo to see if there was a fuse attached - I could not see one! I even opened up the case to see if there was a fuse in there. It does say on the stereo chassis there's a 3A fuse - somewhere! Any ideas where that fuse could be? This is a Panasonic B520A. I'd love to replace this but first I have to see if there's a problem beyond the stereo itself.I can't even test the connections for voltage as they are so small that I can't get a voltmeter in there.Thanks for any help!

Did you look there?Chris

Re: Stereo Not Working Reply #3 – March 13, 2017, 04:47:06 am The radio on later models gets it's power from the coach battery. The fuse is near the isolator, put in by LD, with a fuse holder. If the battery is being charged when the engine is running then the automatic fuses on that line are good.
