  1. hi again guys..

    ok prob a silly question but after installing my deck i realised it blew a fuse.. so i unhooked it (batt, ACC and ground), though i did leave the speaker connections in

    and would like to get an idea of what it is i did wrong so on my next attempt not to repeat the previous mistake...

    any ideas..p.s everything after soldered is taped up seperatly with insulator taping...

  2. without going into to much detail and dont write what type of alarm you have.

    use google to find what type it is and try to get a manual from there.

    i know with black widow alarms they have to be manually reset or dissconected then start the car, then turn it off then reccoonect the alarm.

    i think its a stock alarm and was installed by the manufactorer problem is i never got the key for it (bought it used)..so i guess im going to have to

    dc the alarm by cuttin the wiring..its a big problem cos now wheneva i want to do something regarding removing the -ve terminal of the battery this alarm needs 2 be diarmed via the wiring..

    guess it needs replacing..

  3. Not sure, but I know with select models of fords and holdens they have security on the factory headunit. When installing you wound need to enter the security code. If this is the case, it will either be in the owners manual or you can ring toyota.

    yeah but that doesnt effect the cars starting and if it does it will crank ok and wont start or just wont do anything at all

    but if the car clicks but wont turn over that normally has something to do with a lack of power getting to the starter motor if you have a multimeter on hand you could check the voltage at the batt 12.4v is good then if you have some1 that can turn the key in the ignition see if the voltage drops below 9v at the batt if it does

    first remover wires from batt clean batt terminals and wires reconnect (correctly) and tighten (if theres movement in wires at battery not good conection)

    if still no good check all grounds for corrosion and security

    if still no good check conections at starter

    if still no good call an auto elec as it starts getting technical from there

    thanks yeh... im gna have to i have tightened the batt and i did clean the acid residue off it.. i think sumhow the alarm is stoppin the motor from reaching power the cars reds turn on and th headlights and blinkers.. its jst went i start it it makes a single click noise ..watta pain.. auto electricians are heaps expensive.. ive installed 2 prev decks in this car and theyve wrked fine.. only diff is ive removed the -ve terminal of the batt wen wrkin wit the electrical wiring to ensure no malfunction..and ive used the metal body of the car as a connecter for the ground wiring of the deck as it says to do so in the instructions of the deck..

  4. hey gys.. jst wanted some ideas?

    i installed and soldered my after market deck into my car.. as i went to switch on the car..

    it wuldnt start and made a clicking noise then the alarm of the car sounded hwever it went off in a sort of low tone sound..

    i dc the ACC, batt and ground wires of the deck hwever no change.. i used jump leads to start the car thinkin it may of drained the batt

    and again no luck.. the batt i tested and it had full battery.. i think its 2 do wit the alarm sumhow not allowin power to the

    motor not quite sure.. hwever any idea on what the prob is and hw to fix it?

    btw this is the 3rd deck ive installed in this car.. only diff is this time i took out the -ve terminal of the engine battery and instead of connecting the ground wire of the deck to the ground wire of the car ..i connected it to the metal body of the car via a screw..

  6. Abit but not much because your just adding a bit tip to a small pipe. Universal muffler is the cheapest way to go to get the noise level up, I think sporti got his muffler changed for like 250, and that was in WA so not to expensive

    um if i buy the uuniversal muffler can i install it all by myself or better off professionally?

  7. :help: hey guys, new here.. just wondering i have a gen1 paseo i wanted to make the exhaust noiser so i added a muffler tip to the exhaust end and that didnt work sounds almost like stock.. i dnt wana spend too much on it ..any ideas what i can do witout having to take it like the exhuast shop cos i know its costly there and i prefer to do it myself. thanks
