Default stock headunit/city light help

while i was driving listening to music all of a sudden my stock headunit just turns off. i mean the clock doesnt even show up. i'm thinking its a fuse cause i smelt some type of burning. then i noticed that my city lights werent on either cause the switch i wired them to wasnt lit. they're not wired together which gets me, maybe its just my luck. what a day. anyone have a similar problem. thoughts or help would be appreicated. thanks. oh its a 99 civic si.

double check your wiring. Sounds like you fried one. Did you have an inline fuse for the lights? That could be the problem.

yup just checked it out. it was the fuse for the radio clock. i guess the city lights are somehow connected to that fuse. i guess its cause the city light is connected directly to the fuse box. thanks for the help. i might try rewiring things a bit different. thanks again.

did you wire these yourself? If so, you probably know more about it than we do.
