so i went to work the other night, my radio worked and sounded great. i get into my car so i can go home, and no sound. the head unit just wouldn't come on. wierd thing is that if i take the face plate off, the security light blinks, and when i hit the reset button, things inside are moving, so i know its getting power. yet when i put the face plate back on i get nothing! Does anybody have a clue as to what is going on, what did this, or better yet how to fix it??? please help, i need my music!

Bad connection, dirty, or broken connector from HU to faceplate? Maye the faceplate just took a crap? Sucks either way, hope you figure it out!

Sounds like a loose ACC wire. The unit is getting power (as seen by the security light.), just not turning on.

so i unplugged everything, plugged it all back in, nothing changed. figured i'd try the fuses (eventhough the HU was still getting power). the 10A fuse on the HU was fine, but switched that out anyways. the 15A fuse for the car had nothing left in it. replaced that, everything works fine now. thank god it wasn't anything expensive!
