A-one are ok. So I highly doubt it to be them. But, pro's make mistakes too...

Instead of the usual "power antenna" dribble..
Would you be able to supply a picture of how he's wired the back of the head unit? That way we can have a look at what he's done and maybe give you a better solution to the problem. |

Wasn't saying your installer was bad or anything. Just giving the usual troubleshooting route. If the stock deck plugs in and works fine, then you can slowly narrow it done to what the problem is.
Lots of people running aftermarket decks with no problems, so you need to find out where the problem lies.

Intra - yehh i should take the face off and take a Pic or two to post on here. Might have to do that when i get a chance cause doesn't seem like I'm getting anywhere thus far.
Kato - yes the stock deck works fine, the Alpine deck works fine in another car but not in mine. Tried another deck from Alpine and same problem. Tried another deck from Pioneer and works better but still not right. So what is the next step you suggest for "process of elimination"? I was thinking of putting in an aerial the size of a tv roof antenna hey!!!

Post up the picture of your wiring so some of us can check it out.
If the stock deck works fine there must be a problem with wiring somewhere. Start over again and make sure it is all plugged in correctly. Alternatively, buy one of those adapter harnesses that plug into the stock harness and straight into the deck... No dramas that way then.
