Did you cut off the factory radio connector when you wired it in? I would make SURE your radio is correctly grounded for one. Is there a chance you used the dash light wire as power for the head unit? The more you dimmed your dash lights the quicker the power requirements of your radio would exceed the reduced voltage, possibly turning off the radio as you describbed. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
