# 10 powers the clock and # 9 the one I was originally talking about found one of its functions it works the tap deck and for some reason stays on all the time even with the key out of the ignition . So I am thinking , just leave the fuse out. The rest of the radio seams to work fine.
I understand that you don't have a Trunk Light installed that Dave0430 mentioned in the #2 post above???
Someway power from #9 fuse is connected to the Tape Deck part of your Radio/Cassette Deck. Fuse #9 should only supply power for the memory of the preset and last set radio stations in the Radio/Cassette Deck. The problem may be inside the Radio/Cassette Deck or maybe at the connector on the back of the Radio/Cassette Deck. The Tape Deck should still work with fuse #9 pulled.
If you leave #9 fuse out you will not have memory for the last CB channel, Radio Presets, or the Clock. Each will have to be reset each time you turnON the Ignition Switch.
I believe I would check the 18 pin White connector on the back of the Radio/Cassette Deck paying particular attention to the Red withYellow tracer wire looking for corrosion or any way the Red/Yellow wire isleaking powerto another wire/pin. If you decide that the problem is inside the Radio/Cassette Deck, you have three options; send it in for repair, replace it, or,remove the Red/Yellow wire pin from the 18 pin connector. Removing the Red/Yellow wire would not be my choice but a least you would have the CB channel memory, clock memory, and if you have one, the Trunk Lightworking.
Dave0430 is excellent on these type problems, maybe he will have other suggestions.
You also might place your year/model Goldwing information in your signature block on your profile, thenevery time you post, members will know the information. There were somedifferences in the earlier year to later year GL 1500 models.
