Hello, I recently purchased a 98 A4 Quattro with 100K miles, good service record, runs well, etc. However, the previous owner installed an aftermarket pioneer stereo/navigation unit that "blows fuses" when turned on due to incorrect wiring, which I have not done, as I plan on putting the original stereo back in. I'm wondering if this could be the cause for so many failures. The auto windows, moon roof, and hazards work fine though. My question is whether I can check and replace the fuses myself, and if not, is this a costly fix?

Hi
What fuses blow? Would start with removing radio and disconnecting wiring often times when non experienced install they mistaken a hot wire for ground. All effected items share same ground on left side dash. As for expense for electrical problems is per hr charge with a 2 hr check out time or more if needed.
Hope this helps
Thanks for donate
