- show quoted text - cool. that means i could but one hell of a system in there and using the deck i am thinking about if i get a charger i will be able to run a front rear center and sub set up. by my count your missing 2 speakers in that count. possibly some flag tweeters at the a pillar or top of the door panel -- chris 05 ctd 06 liberty crd . 222 332327 vbhmh.11055$yx5.3700@fe31.usenetserver.com bg wrote heres the story last week the audio in my truck went out. i have a 2005 dodge ram qc with infnity 7 speaker system. the stereo in dash appeared to be finelights display etc but no audio from amp behind glove box. took it to the dealer they tried to replace the radio but still no audio. they ordered a new amp put it in today. the dealer just called said as soon as they connected the new amp it fried. so now they are ordering a new radio and amp. he says for troubleshooting they checked all my aftermarket wiringamp under seat for sub box under back seat. he says the wiring was fine. he says they were able to get audio from the new factory stereo to speakers by bypassing the amp. he further claims that the old factory stereo would not pass audio to speakers when bypassing the amp. my question is what would cause a otherwise fine stereo to suddenly quit and fry the amp in the process my concern is maybe the issue is not originally with the stereo at all but the pci cluster tia jon for a power amp to fry the most likely cause would be that the output to the speakers is shorted or grounded. high powered amps use a special kind of output called bridged. none of the speaker lines can go to ground with a bridged output. disconnect te power amp and check the wireing. also look for a shorted speaker. bg this saga is apparently over. i was not able to get much detail from the dealer as to the original issue which took out the amp. at this time the disposition is dealer installed new factory radio new factory ampbehined glovebox and everything works fine. they state all wiring was double checked stock and aftermarket they found no problems. they were a bit puzzled when the new replacement oem amp fried on install. they claim after doing some research they zeroed in on the oem stereo. according to them something shorted out in the head unit and transfered itself along the pci bus to the amp thanks for everyones help.. i guess me nor the dealer will ever know what caused the stereo to go and why it affected the amp. i know they were concerned that my pci cluster may have suffered a short so they were checkeing that but it chekcs out fine. .

roy wrote miles did you try the disc yes. seems like my isp has some usenet problems lately. i enter in a destination and allow it to compute a route. then i press the nav button and select route options. one of the options listed is avoid road. it lists all of the roads and highways used in the route and allows me to select them to avoid. this causes it to reroute another way. nope i do not have that option. i have the ae revision part #05064033ae. check for this avoid road on yours as i really thought it was present on my older 05064033ad disc. i have the ad disc on mine there is not avoid option. believe me i did everything to make it appear but it just isnt there. i have also heard there will be an af revision coming out in the next few weeks. alpine updates the roads once or twice a year. not always worth the $200 a pop. ebay is cheaper. i wonder if i bitch enough to the dealer i can get them to upgrade the disc. hell ive bought 7 cars/trucks from them over the years. ill give it a shot. if not ebay is the way to go. thanks for checking i really appreciate it. .

on 26 feb 2004 081819 -0800 eddybean@hotmail.com eddy bean wrote so as a follow up.. i drove about 30km in the vehicle today around town and on the highway at speeds between 100-120km/hr+. no problem at all! so it seems in this case the cause of misfire and stall was fuel pump/fuel filter related problem. will see if the vehicle continues to perform okay over next few weeks! i suspect the pump was fine and the filter plugged - and the filter change should have been the first thing done assuming it has an external filter. doing a pressure test at idle will not catch a marginal filter as it flows plenty of fuel to maintain pressure at idle but restricts flow enough to reduce pressure at speed. if it is a system with an external filter after the pump a plugged filter can damage the pump over a long period. .

hi; nirodac; i have a 1978 with a vin plate that says d20 as well. my suggestion to our southern hemisphere dodge brethren is to find or order the electronic ignition conversion. did the v-8s ever come with electronic ignition before mitsubishi bought out chrysler australia if they did just grab the ballast resistor the ignition box and the distributor and as much of the wiring as you can pull out. wiring up the ignition is fairly straightforward. where in aussie are you gavin have you checked the ballast resistor. its a white ceramic block on the left fender. i didnt think anybody used points after 1970. and would that be a 1978 d200 3/4 ton nirodac gday from the land down under can anyone help my mate down here has an imported 1978 dodge d20 3 ton . the motor we think is non original 318 .very smokey it has points ignition. we cannot get it to run without bypassing the ignition . starter to battery & coil there is one wire under the bonnet we do not know what it goes to at distributor 1 does anyone in the states have a workshop electrical drawing that can be scanned and emailed to me or know of websites to obtain workshop manuals . all australian hemis were electronic ignition after 73 2 would this be the correct build engine for this d20 with points very interested in american dodges and plymouths after serving my apprenticeship at chrysler aust. as an engineering patternmaker and had a lot to do with hemis and fireballs 3 can anyone help us convict stock down under 4 my mates brother-in-law would like to import any dodges or plymouths 55 to 75 . does anyone have anything laying around out the back rusting away wanting to sell of any interest muscle cars or unique please send any pics . 5 is it as simple to covert points to electronic simply but installing a an electronic dizzy thank-you all and kind regards pfinch@esc.net.au .
