help with wrx stereo in my legacy (again!)

Post by fatgc8 »

Ok guys so i tried to merge the two bc/gc stereo harness's together and that didn't seem to work. So now i went ahead and bit the bullet and bought the metra reverse harness for the legacy and bought a metra impreza harness. I hooked up all the colors accordingly and then plugged two wrx stereos in and nothing happens. It doesn't turn on or anything. To make matters worse my interior dome lights dont work anymore either and i dont know why. If anyone has an idea on how to fix this please chime in.

You blew the fuse. Same fuse runs the cabin lighting and radio. I think it's in the engine compartment fusebox... Disconnect any red, yellow or red/yellow wiring you did before you replace it, unless you're sure everything's hooked up correctly.

Thank you. It did end up being a fuse in the engine compartment.
