So I bought a new teggy and the headunit in it took a shit and froze up so I bought a new head unit (Pioneer 5900). I put it in and it came on for like two seconds and shut off and at this time my clock shit the bed too. So I figured the ground I used wasn’t good enough I used a previous ground point for the accessories behind the dash, after taking everything back out and looking more at it I saw that there is a factory chassis ground in the harness and I wired it up. I blew the accessory fuse and I changed it out. Still nothing after fixing all that. So what did I fuck up and how bad?

Thanks

Looks like there’s an internal ground fuse. Have you cracked it open yet?

check underhood, then use a multimeter to check all power wires in the radio harness.
