    Searched throughout this site and the web to find out which fuse is for the radio.
    Any ideas or should I visit the dealer to tell em that my CD is stuck and by pulling and reseating the fuse for the radio will cure the problem. And see if they can determine which one it is?

    What do you think?


    Thanks,
    Gnar

    You can just pull the negative battery cable for five minutes, it will accomplish the same thing....just a bit more of a hassle. Hope it works.

    I use the fuse method. Moderator Tideland Prius prefers the battery cable.

    I am scared of the battery cable and avoid it if I can.

    If you are stubborn, there's a fuse chart in the owners manual.

    Oh, by pull, I mean disconnect the 12-volt negative cable from the attachment point back in the hatch. Easier to disconnect from the car body than from the battery itself.

    Be warned, there will be sparks.

    I am looking for the radio fuse also. I can't believe that on a Prius dedicated site no-one has answered which fuse it is !
    The fuse chart doesn't say. The owner's manual doesn't say.

    The radio is an accessory, so pull the ACC fuse.
