Today my radio stopped coming on, the clock lights up but the radio it self wont turn on. I also noticed my horn stopped working too. The fuses arent blown. Is there a relay under the dash that might control both? I am embarassed to say that they quit working after I sparked a wrench off m strut bar when tightening the + posotive terminal on the battery. But the fuses didnt blow.WTF
 
Shorting battery positive to ground doesn't go through any fuses so they normally don't blow. The spike produced however may cause problems. The radio goes through ignition switch - no relay. The horn on a 1g doesn't have a relay unless you have the theft alarm.
 
thanks, I have teh theft alarm, Ill check out that relay. As far as the stock radio, Im putting a new one in this weekend, so hopefully thatll solve the problems.
