Or the harness for the new radio? If it popped out of the stock radio harness, look at the other pins and see how they go in. Its prolly a metal piece, then the harness has a little plastic clip that comes down. Slide the metal piece back in the same way as the others, then push that plastic piece down hard. If you think its making good contact, check to see if your getting 12v from the wire. If your not then its a fuse somewhere. _____________________________ NORML 2006 I4 Sedan SE Optima YellowTop 8000k HIDs Valor ITS-702W 12" Kicker CVX Kicker ZX750.1 JL Audio VR650-CSi Kenwood KAC-6202 JL Audio VR690-CXi Kicker ZX250.2 (in reply to thetangstr) Post #: 2
