If anyone can help me I would appreciate it.
I bought a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 with 4.7 engine. Whoever owned it before me replaced the stereo with a pioneer deh-150mp stereo. My husband wanted to replace the stereo and speakers but I asked him not to touch it that we would take it to a car stereo place and have them do it. Sorry, but he screws things up worse than he does fixing them...lol
Anyways, while I was at work one day he kept my truck needing to haul something. When I got home that evening he had been messing with the stereo and had replaced the speakers, which thankfully he did not mess them up, but the new stereo he bought he was unable to get any power to it so he put the pioneer back in.
This is where the problem begins. When I bought the truck everything worked on it just fine. After him messing with the stereo a list of problems have arisen and currently I don't have the money to take it to the shop to get someone to look at it right now so I'm hoping maybe someone on here has some ideas of what I can do or where to start. These are the problems I'm having:
1) Stereo will not hold memory.
2) Power door lock button will not work without key being turned on.
3) Horn will not work without key being turned on.
4) Driver's side back blinker intermittently works sometimes.
We have taken the stereo out several times and rewired it thinking maybe he wired it wrong. I printed out the wiring instructions and followed them exactly and still nothing. When this pioneer stereo was put in they didn't use a wiring harness they just cut all the wires.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated right now.
