head unit help

[psych0ticnemes1 5,000+ posts]

i took my old unit out, hooked up my new unit, and now neither of them work...

all i did was hook the new deck to the new harness

even if i wired it wrong which i didn't, the old deck should still work fine, but it doesn't even turn on...

any ideas???

thanks

its a conspiracy from the company that controls the radio waves. you will never be able to listen to just cds you have to have the antenna plugged in at all times.

I hate when you drop the antenna wire into the dash...

If the head unit doesn't work until you plug in the antenna, it means you don't have a good ground connection.
