is there an aftermarket radio in the car? if there is make sure the orange wire isn't connected....that could be causing probs.

i would try a different radio.....it sounds like there is a problem with the radio. If u had a multimeter u could tell if it was loosing voltage on certain wires.

does it reset the clock on the radio? It's the difference between cutting the power all together or cutting power to the acc.

there's a wire that dims or turns on the radio's lights when you turn the car's headlights on. that wire is most likely your problem. i'm guessing it's hooked up in the wrong place.
