Question type: Maintenance & Repair

95 1500 4x4, worked fine other day, went to store, came out, it was dead, put an emergency charger/jump pack on it, waited, and it started, but radio wont turn on now when running.  Shut off, try to restart, and nothing unless its jumped.  With the radio out also, is this a fuse issue, or ?

First thing to check is to see if you have power at the radio connector. If not, then trace back to the source, check fuse, etc. Dead battery would cause the station settings to go away but that's about all. Wouldn't hurt also to swing past your local Auto Zone or Advance and have them check the charging system and battery. They do that w/o charge.
