So yesterday i got a passport 8500 for my birthday. cool. Ordered a wire from www.invisicord.com to plug the detector into my Visor with no splicing needed. OK cool worked turned on no problem. Well i go to get some stuff from rite aid. Come out and the detector is off. Turn the car on and the tire pressure sensor comes on and stays on, the trip is reset to 0 and the homelink light on my advisor wont change from green to red like it should when u press the first two buttons. The Visor still has power too it but the homelink buttons seem to not function and of course my radar detector doesnt work. I PLug it into my cigarette lighter and it turns on fine. NOw to pin down whats shorted out. I reset the ecu that didnt fix anything so any help would be greatly appreciated!! Blinkers Dont work either !!!

 

oh and blinkers dont work either....

 

I guess first did you check all the fuses.

 

yeah i checked all the fuses no go

 

get out of hte car before it blows up!...

but in all seriousness, what exactly did you do when you plugged it in? did you use the right wire ends to plug into the right holes in the homelink plug?

Yeah i did, theres only 3 plugs negative and then a 10v positive. So i tapped into those two and drove around no problems for a while and then poof problems
