I have a 2004 Kia Sedona with 61,000 miles on it. Over the weekend my radio/cd player stopped working. I checked the fuses by taking each one out and replacing them. None were blown and the radio once again had power.

Today, I drove a short distance with my car and stopped and shut the car off. When I got back in my car, the power to the radio was off again.

I went back to the fuses and check them. I pulled out the audio fuse, it was fine and replaced it. There were two fuses that I had to press down because they were not in securely. I feel there is another issue here, please advise me on what the problem could be.

The dealer thinks it is a radio issue that is not under warranty, of course.

Thank you

When the stereo doesnt work, test the acc fuse under dash with a test light, dont remove it. If there is power through it, then the stereo might be having an issue. If there is no power, then the ignition switch is most likely the culprit.
