Thanks to this forum for help installing my amp and rear speakers. It all worked and sounded great as  a test. Forgot to turn off key from acc side. I touched the blue accessory wire (20 pin blue) to the frame by accident as I was connecting my last wire to the amp. This is the wire that turns on the amp and it connects to the light green/black wire on other side of 20 pin connector. Anyway I heard some static when it touched and now my display and radio won't show and work. Is there a fuse I can check? I checked the ones right there beside all the wires. They are all good. Where else should I look for the problem?

I've checked the forum for answers and haven't find anything.

Thank in advance,

Matt

Are you talking about the wiring of your radio/amp or are you talking about the bike wiring. Don't recall a Blue wire from the bike. Besides any fuses you may have installed, and the fuses for the bike, your radio and or amp probably have fuses. On a radio, they'd usually be in the back. They are usually the two spade automotive type

Yes I am talking about the wiring of the bike. I've attached a wiring diagram for better understanding.

http://www.rattlebars.com/valkfaq/schematics/rpage09i.html

See the 20P Blue (left side of sheet). There is a blue wire that says 12V ACC (OUT) goes into the 20 pin and out the other side to LT GREEN/BLACK. It runs to the CB TRANSCEIVER. I stripped a little off the blue wire and soldered a another wire to connect to amp. This is the switch wire that turns it on. I had left my  key ignition turned back on to acc side, which left power to the wire going to the amp. That's when it touched the bike frame as I was running it back to connect. The amp fuse is ok.

Did you check the small fuse on the side of main fuse box? There is I believe a 5 amp fuse for the radio/display in this box.

Do you mean this fuse box right under the right cover next to the 20P blue?  Then yes. Is there another fuse somewhere to check?

There is a picture of the piggyback off the blue wire to amp wire as well.

Yes, the narrow fuse box on the right side of the main center fuse box. There is a fuse in there for the radio/display.

Thank you. That solved my problem. I had pulled it and looked at it before, but didn't notice anything. The fuse was bad. I had to look real close to see it. Thank you again for all your help.
