I just installed a new head unit in my car last night and when I tried to turn it on I got nothing! At first I thought maybe I wired it wrong, but I verified it was done correctly (w/ the Schoshe adapter). Today I noticed that the clock isn't working and neither is the anti-theft. I checked the radio and clock fuse and they were fine. What else could be the problem? Everything was working flawlessly yesterday. Please help!

Recheck the fuses, they can be decieving. Did you just do a visual on the fuse or measure it on a meter? I would recommend replacing the fuse or measuring continuity with a volt meter. I went for a week a while back looking for an electrical gremlin and it turned out to be the fuse that I could not see the break in. Good luck.

That's good to know. But which fuse might control the head unit, clock, and anti-theft? I saw an audio fuse, a clock fuse, but nothing for the anti-theft. Might it be one of the fuses under the hood?
