Car radio/CD cuts out after 3 seconds what is wrong?

Question

I have a Jeep Liberty, and a whiel ago my radio/CD player just stopped working.Actually, it will come on for about 3 seconds and then just stop. Same with the CD part, it will play for about 3 seconds and then just stop.Any idea what I should do to correct the problem?Thanks!

Answer 1

sounds like its not getting enough power, i had the same problem with an alpine running on an independent battery.  check your fuses, in the car and in the engine bay. change any fuses that are blown, some times the car has more then one fuse, like a back up fuse to keep the clock powered if the main stereo fuse blows.
