I blew something up - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

So today i was installing a new deck in my 91 rolla. Everything was going fine and i had it all wired up. I thought it would be smooth sailing until i plugged it all in. The antenna and six pin went in fine but as soon i plugged in the 10 pin the deck started to smoke. I instantly unplugged everything and checked my wiring, which looks perfect. After the ordeal i plugged in the old stereo to find out it wasnt getting any power. I figured it was a fuse so i checked the kick panel and the fuse was fine. i swaped a new one just to make sure and checked it with a volt meter and it's getting power. I called a friend afterwards and he said he once saw a subaru with a fuse for the stereo behind the dash. I've been trying to find a diagram all day and haven't came across anything useful. So my question is does such a fuse exist in toyotas and is there any other place i should look before i rip my dash apart? I'll be checkin back here frequently but if anyone has a diagram feel free to email it to me, kurserone@gmail.com

Thanks,

Kurser

Fuse for the radio should be behind the kick panel. However does the radio have a fuse.. .and since it started to smoke, I'd say you fried the head unit power supply atleast.

It does have a fuse but the fuse is still fine. Are there any other fuses elsewhere? I've been looking but haven't found anything. I'm thinking the wire might have gone..
