[QUOTE="AdamSaw, post: 8674803, member: 677044"] Hello, Im looking for some assistance regarding my new stereo im trying to install in my 2008 Pontiac G5. I made all the correct soldering and tube shrink connections needed for my scosche gm3000fa except for a sw1 sw2 and ant cables to the new radio harness as the scosche didnt seem to have those and assumed they werent needed. I also spliced an extra red ignition cable from the new radio harness and scosche harness connection for a rear camera to install after the new radio functions ( turns on ) which is not connected yet. I put the negative terminal back on the battery and turned it on and no power. I then search the internet to see if perhaps i needed to connect the antenna cable coming from the new radio to a cable in the stock oem harness so i made a connection to the pink radio on power cable on the oem harness (according to a diagram i got from the internet) to the blue antenna power cable. I reconnected the battery again and turned the car on and nothing again. I checked fuse 23 audio system and it seems fine. Also the stock radio was working perfectly before i disconnected it. Im not sure what im missing. Any helpbwould be greatly appreciated. This is my third aftermarket install ever so im still fairly new. Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks, Adam [/QUOTE]
