$300 for this truck that the seller thought was destitute, but I'm turning it around and learning a lot.

Gas gauge - I was sitting at a stoplight a couple of weeks ago, not revving the motor or hearing any difference in the pitch of the motor, but my gas gauge was going back and forth from full to empty pretty sporadically and continued for the rest of the drive - Now it either doesn't work at all or its correct, but I'm not seeing any actual difference in engine performance Temperature gauge - I haven't seen it act up, and I don't have any temperature problems - it's on/off when the fuel gauge is on/off All of the other gauges are working as they ought to. What is there for me to do to fix this? Thanks in advance.

blown stereo fuse or short circuit or ruined new stereo?

Hey thanks for the help, guy! -

Success! I backtracked and wired everything up right and it works now. Thanks everybody. I'll ask another silly question in the near future. -

I can't figure out what to take the new stereo's red wire (labelled ACC+ Fuse:.5A) to on the pathy's wire bundle. 12 volt power? -

Yellow is the main power, this doesn't make sense to what I'm seeing. -

What do you think the red wire is for then? It says acc+ fuse:.5A. Can't figure out what to do with it. -

I got the old stereo (pioneer deh 245) to work, the new stereo (a cheap sdc26b by ssl) doesn't work, and none of the wires seem to color match. I bought the truck for 300 because the previous owner kept getting into drunk driving accidents with it, so he thought it was destitute. Im unsure if the wiring has been modified, no other mods, not an OE stereo, the stereo was 4/10 but worked, I wanted an update, no keys in the ignition. -

Just a quick reply: when I plugged the plastic wiring adapter into the stereo, the speakers made a slight pop (just tested it, and they still do) like plugging into a guitar while the guitar amp isoniazid, or plugging an aux cable into a port while the other end is plugged into a loud stereo. Still makes that sound for both stereos. And the light on the lighter USB adapter was just a quick light up (still does this). -

Neither of the stereos are getting power. All I did was pull out the old, looked at the plastic plug and saw that it could fit into the new stereo, so I plugged it in, heard it through the speakers, and my cigarette lighter usb charger lit up (though my keys were out of the ignition). Idk what wiring adapters are, and I do have a voltmeter, could you send me a link with a good description on what to test for in this scenario? -

That fuse is fine, as far as I can tell. I'll test it on the morning, but what happens if the fuse is fine? -
92 pathfinder, I'm entirely inexperienced, but thought it'd be a good idea to install a brand new stereo without reading directions, switching any wires, or disconnecting the negative terminal. So now I've got no power to the stereo head, can't find the fuse (kick or underhood) and am unsure of a solid place to start. Am I at a loss? Or is it just a matter of finding a fuse? I do not know where to start. I appreciate your time and replies ahead of time.
