Get a test light to see if there is power going to the wire? Plus sometimes the inline fuse for power cord may not look blown, but still could be
-
I've already put my meter on it there is no power to the wire and the inline fuse ohms out just fine but I can't seem to find a fuse on the fuse panel that is blown
-
Do a search for fuse box locations for your truck. Frieghtliner has a habit of putting fuse panels in odd places. Behind glove box, firewall, behind driver seat door pillar.With the cascadia cb fuse was behind glove box back in right corner a real bear to get to. On columbias it was easier lift panel where glove box should be and there were the fuses. A diagram of fuse panel may show up online also if your's is missing. Some freightliners have multiple fuse boxes.
-
I have and have came up empty except for the one on the fender well and the one on the frame. I don't have a glove box but I did check behind the panel
-
I haven't been in a freightshaker in a number of years, but something tells me there was a fuse panel in the center of the dash on the bottom just in front of the shifter, Try looking there
-
you didn't hook the power wires to the radio up backwards did you? If so, there's a small diode in some radios that will blow.
-
I looked at fuse box diagram didn't see a specific cb fuse listed. Is anything else not working? They had a radio fuse but that was likely for the am/fm.

cb power is on same circuit as cig lighter...a y-jumper is installed in dash behind lighter when cb power is spec'd...remove dash panel...look for a thick ga 2-wire harness with t-shaped black plugs..make sure all three plugs in y-harness are pushed all the way in. if they are check ring terminals on back of cb posts for tightness.
