hey guys new here juts bought me a 93 Accord 4 door LX as my daily driver.... i am currectly installing a Jensen VM9510 headunit in it and have come to a roadblock... i've hooked up all the wiring.. except the dimmer which there is none and a parking brake wire that ur supposed to hookup to ur parking brake so u can only watch movies when the e-brake is up.. so didnt hook that up either.. but when i turn the car on.. nothing f'in happens... yet when i take the fuse out and put it back in.. it seems to start up and the fan gets going and the cuts off.... anyone have any suggestions or idea's? any of you audio guys?

 

First, take a continuity tester and see if the thing is getting power. If it is, then its an internal problem. If not, then you've probably hooked it up wrong.

 

the parking brake wire needs to be grounded so the tv will work. know as far as the radio not working , u need a test light 2 check both power sources red and yellow wires. dimmer wire doesn't need to be hooked up. also make sure ground is good.

 

ya i ended up doing that.. it was the headunit malfunctioning

there's different kind of parking brake sensor also, some you can just leave it out but some wouldn't run if it's not connected to soemthing.
