Well last night I attempted to install my interceptor. It failed cause the interceptor wouldnt work. Well I left everything apart cause I didnt see the point of putting it back together yet. Well I was on my way to work today and just cruising. I hit a bump and it was pretty hard, but nothing cracked rim, or damaged parts type of way. However as soon as the bump hit my radio went off. No lights, none of the buttons worked etc. It was really upsetting. I got to work and had a few minutes to spare so I went and poped the fuse out. Looked fine. turned it over and put it in oposite way and still nothing. I then took out another 15 a fuse from the box and swapped fuses just to see what would happen, still nothing.

WTF

How does a radio die from hitting a freaking bump?

well I guess I will be setting up an appointment to have it fixed this week... that sucks so much...

I dont really know anything about audio, but my initial guess would be a loose connection that finally came undone?

Either way, good luck with it.

Don't hate your cobalt cause of something you might have done, the inceptor might have screwed up or loosen a wire, hold off on hating your car until you know what's wrong, Karma dude.

only thing I touched was the fuse area, I didnt touch anything else with the radio unless the boost gauge is tied in with the Radio which I highly doubt, as that is currently removed.

that sux, whats up with the Gauge, they just plug into your ODBII port right

my bro put it back in his car and it works fine.... IM taking off early to try to get it fixed. Maybe I have a bad ODBII port :'(

I heard the electronics in this thing are crazy, like every little thing is connected. Put back the gauge and see what's up, but it's dumb if a boost gauge controls a radio, lol.
