it's on a 1997 nissan maxima, was replacing power antennia and upon having difficulties with that, my son tried to help seeing movement of ant. with certain wires, apparently shorted out or blew a fuse in the little metal alarm box stationed near the ant. door chime doesnt work, alarm indicator light as well. There is a pink (was hot) , and black and red, and solid black wire that comes out of one port, and a thicker gray wire coing out of another. Please inform, apprec. Just finding main power souce that initially provided power is impossible- for me.

you have to check all your fuses.... turn the ignitio on... take your tester and probe all you fuses one by one..the one that doesn't show pwr on the other end of the contact on the fuse is the bad one,,, I hope this can hep you posted_image

Ohmz, you rock. I thought i checked all fuses, but there was one i only checked one side of, and sure enough, checked other and it was fried. Thanx so much. D
