so i found my left over old ghetto JVC deck, i purchased the pigtail off of ebay for it, i wired everything up (because the plug that attaches from the wires in the car was cut off). deck doesn't work. I figured out that the entire accessory circuitry in my car doesn't work either. So i ran a wire from my battery into the car.

Took that 12v wire rann it to the 12v constant on the stereo. Took the accessory wire from the stereo and wired it into a switch then wired that to the afformentioned 12v battery wire. SWEET, stereo works, i now have tunes.

I go to start the car and it just cranks, sounsd like its not getting any fuel at all, and it certainly doesn't smell like fuel puddeling in my motor. So i reversed everything i did, disconnected my, again previously mentioned, jesus 12v wire. Disconnected my fuel pump kill switch so that it was no longer wired in. and tried to start the car. Same thing

==Lets check fuses==
fuel pump fuse is fine
ignition fuses are fine

I checked under the dash, and found 2 busted fuses, a 15amp and a 30amp, I replaced the 30amp with a 15amp one i had laying around to see if it would blow again when i tried to start the car. nothing, fuse didn't even blow.

the 15amp that was busted i replaced with another 15amper - did nothing.

helllppp
