    Does it cut out when you use only the cd player with the rear speakers not on?

    run a bit of fused 12ga wire from the battery straight to the headunit and ground it straight to the chassis, that "should" fix it otherwise it could just be a faulty headunit.

    Hmm I have the same problem in my vr6 its a Pioneer headunit and I'm getting the same scenario as what WABIT is getting I can only crank it to 10 and then the headunit lighting starts to fade in and out like the power is draining, really weird. How much would it cost for someone to look at it.
