Sounds like there's a loose ground or something. You might wanna do your typical continuity tests. If there's no continuity it's obviously a loose connection or the unit is bad. You might wanna check out Free online auto repair manual for the masses. Recession Proof. - Garage411 (http://www.Garage411.com) they usually have this kind of stuff.

Ok. After more research Im leavif towards the head unit wiring. Came with some old pioneer and switched over to a new Sony n there were a couple stray wires on the new one.
