I have a 93 Honda Accord and every time I turn the radio up it cuts off and restarts. I checked all the wiring and everything is good anyone else ever have this problem?

This can't be anything but the radio itself is bad.

Is this a new installation? Or old install with a new problem?
Have the speakers been replaced? Are they the same wattage/Ohm rating?
Are you using an amp?
Is the wiring still factory or are there splices?
Is it always at the same volume level?
Have you checked the wiring at the back, verified the head unit chassis is properly grounded to the car body?

its a new install.
i haven't replaced the speakers yet just installed the headunit yesterday.
the wiring is still factory no splicing.
its always are ound the same level or when a song with bass comes on it goes out.
i'm going to try to run a ground wire from the battery to the radio today to see if it will fix the problem.

If the volume level is high, it may be due to a high wattage draw from the speakers.
If you have not already, run a dedicated ground wire from the head unit chassis to the car body. Recheck the wire connector that was provided for any loose, damaged, or ill fitting pins.

it turned out to be the constant 12v wire. idk what the problem is with it but when I hooked it up to the red wire it never cut off. so i ran a separate wire from the constant 12v to the fuse box in the front of the car.
