Hello my friend my name is \*\*\*\*\* \*\*\*\*\* I can help you today. Approximately how many miles do you have and is it an aftermarket radio or original.

It's after market and I have subs
Automotive Expert
Did you installed it yourself

No that's the problem I'm trying to get it fixed so I can sell it for a little bit of cash the person who had it did a bunch of stuff and rigged it up I just don't know wiring well so I need someone to do it
Automotive Expert
Oh ok, you have to pull out the radio, most likely the yellow or red wire is either loose or bad connection, see if they connected with electrical tape which is bad or butt connectors which is the right way .

Okay also the car is having a problem starting which I just put in a new starter
Automotive Expert
What are the symptoms

Well it was working fine then the electrical stuff was messing up then a day later it wouldn't start but it cranks
Automotive Expert
When it cranks and doesn't start you have to check if its getting spark and gas. Most of the times the distributor goes bad on those vehicles.

Okay it's also stick shift if that makes a difference
