T3: Re: radio shorting out


Sonny,
	OK, one thing at a time. Disconnect the radio from any power
source & see how this effects your charging system. If that fixes the
charging problem try connecting the radio to another fuse. I would guess
the correct fuse would depend on what year your car is. Is this the
original radio or one you had installed? DFid it blow fuses before
changing the speaker? I wouldn't think a speaker would blow a fuse
regardless of the specs. Is the in-line fuse the proper amp rating? Maybe
try a different radio. Can you borrow one? 
	Just somethings to consider.
