Re: 97 Honda Civic Audio Problem
 

Did some checking. The fuse to replace is number 23 in the under-dash
fuse box. This fuse feeds power to the cigarette lighter and to the
stereo. It should be 15A. 15A fuses are blue in color. Number 23 is in
the upper of the two rows of fuses, towards the right hand side.
