Ok, Im in a pickle..Ive done many of installs before but none like this..First Id like to say that honda sucks and makes it near impossible to get everything off in a easy fashion...Anyways, I have EVERYTHING hooked up properly, and I am not getting any power..At one point the power button lit up and then shut off, but that was the only sign of life I had...Seccondly, I went to start my car up to charge it since Ive been using my dome lights for some time, and my power stearing isnt working and my VSA light is on and wont turn off..And as I was walking into the house just now I went to lock it with the remote and it will not work...WTF?!

 

Sounds like a dead battery, or a near dead battery.

 

I got everything else working now except the unit itself! What is the problem?

 

Sure it's not a dead battery? H/U may take more power than that other stuff. Start the car for a few min.

 

Yeah, there was one point where I had the car runnin for a few minutes..

 

fuse. under the hood. happened to my friends car when we were installing his deck.

 

Any idea on which?

 

its called the backup somthing. i always forget. its under the hood.

 

Thanks boss.

 

If the fuse thing didn't work then you better buy an ETM. We had a customer that hooked up his deck to draw from the communication line. The PCM gave him an X amount of start ups and then It wouldn't start again. We DG by the book and changed parts that were suggested by the service manual. In the end I got really pissed off, unplugged the deck and the car started up. Be careful with the new Honda, because they are incorporating body electrical communication lines that can easily became a nightmare.
