does anyone know why my stereo will only work if i have the cd player plugged in aswell? without the cd player it turns on and works but if i want to hear it i have to turn it up to the max and i hear more fuzzyness rather than music.... in short, how do i make the tape deck work without the cd player?

Id say get a headunit.......
im guessing you have the stock honda cd/tape deck thing....i had one with my car and all i got was loud shreaking noise that almost made me swerve and kill a family of 5.....so i said fuck that and bought a pioneer 6700....awesome thus far.....im now looking into a cheap avic n2 if i can find one....
maybe if you pull the radio and open her up and give a good cleaning? Make sure all your wiring is straight? Fuse?

let me guess.. you mean u have a CD player.. and u hook up a tape player connect to the headphone of the cd player. and slide it in and it works?? well... i know that a sony radio when i install one for a customer i slide a CD in it works.. but when i take it out the radio doesnt work at all.. found out i had to connect a blue wire in the back once i did the radio and CD player works. maybe that's why?Comment

the OEM decks that came with cd player/changer support came with a black jumper plug for the back of the deck in case you arent using the CD unit. without the jumper, the unit will not work.

correct as he mention.....on the 2 deck honda unit the cassete/cd or cassete/equalizer......the secondary unit which is cd or equilizer acts as a amplifier to make the sound loud!......now when u remove the cd player or eq you will need to have the oem jumper plug on the back or esle the main unit will not work!......Originally posted by cp[mike]Comment
