[QUOTE="pyunny, post: 3757450, member: 584428"] I've had my headunit installed for a week now and in that period of time a brake light has gone out and a headlight has gone out. I think both happened when I was putting the faceplate on while driving first while braking and another time when my headlights were on. I also noticed that after my headunit was installed my headlights or other lights dim when i'm starting my car or when I turn on the rear window defroster. Are these common problems?? or should i get something checked out... My car battery had died when I originally installed the headunit but I thought it was due to my battery being old/a loose negative cable. However, after these other incidences I'm not so sure if I installed something wrong (the only thing i can think of that I did wrong was ground it incorrectly) or if my headunit is just sapping too much electricity. any help/suggestions/comments would be appreciated! I'm just not sure if these are normal problems or if I have done something horrendous to my car. I've had a lot of anxiety since the battery problems =S [/QUOTE]
