[QUOTE="magic_wizard, post: 702278, member: 551170"] Yesterday I got an Alpine 9835 professionally installed. I went to Target afterwards and my car started up fine when I left Target. Then I went to go eat somewhere and my car wouldn't start when I wanted to leave. I got it jumped and charged it for a while. The lights and high beam worked fine. In fact, everything worked fine except for the hu. When I turned it on, it turned off, and then it turned on by itself and then off and on, etc... So I turned the hu off by leaving source pressed and it stayed off. I then drove back home, and as soon as I turned the car off, I tried starting it. SAME PROBLEM. It would not start. I disconnected the amp fuses, got a jump, drove for 30 minutes with the lights on, came back home, and stopped the car. IMMEDIATELY afterwards, I tried starting it again. Same problem. It just would not start. I have an optima yellow top that is less than a year old. I also have a 180 amp Iraggi alt that is even younger. And with the other head unit, I would play it alot louder than I did yesterday with the alpine, but I had no previous problems with charging or starting. I did not tamper with any wiring after the hu install. Does anybody have any clue of what might be going wrong? Could this be something that can be caused by a head unit? I really need some help, because until I get this fixed, I have to get a jump everytime I want to start my car. [/QUOTE]
