no power to radio
So to the harness everything checks out. good ground. constant has 12v and switched has 12v with the key on. antenna has a good ground too. when I plug the radio in and turn the car on nothing. no power no lights turning on in the radio. darn thing worked when I had it in the mitsubishi and before I took out of the firebird to put it in the mitsubishi. Unit is a kenwood mp345u
