[QUOTE="Pioneer~Saturn, post: 4950319, member: 569334"] To make sure its working Id get a couple runs of power wire (16 gauge or something) and wire it up directly to a well-charged battery (the ground, continuous, and acc wires)...just to make sure it turns on and works properly...and if you hook it up again in your car and something isnt right you may want to run power wire straight from the battery to the headunit (Id use an appropriate fuse as well on that run) as the continuous...then take the ground of the headunit and either find a nice ground to bolt it to or run it directly back to the battery's negative battery terminal. And then for the acc wire you'd need to find a relay in you car that will turn on when the car's acc's turn on (or wire up a new one that you cn buy)...I would also fuse this just for $hits-n-giggles and with all of that it should be golden because everything is laid out and controlled because you ran the wires...and it should have no reason to not work then..
