Reinstalled headunit. No power, fuses are good.

I put the headunit in the bay and wired it through the harness. Go to turn the car on and the headunit isn't turning on. Take it out and wire it directly to the battery with both red and yellow together. Still nothing.

You can hear the insides moving and trying to read a cd but that's all it does. The eject button works also and dongle looks fine. Everything seems fine but nothings working. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/mad.gif.c18f003ab0ef8a0d9c27ca78d77a6392.gif

Just checked the prongs in the dongle with a test light and the yellow and red wires are getting power. So it must be the headunit it's self. I'm thinking the connection between the faceplate and the headunit. :\
