i just bought this new JVC head unit for my 1984 ford f150 and i couldn't find an after market wiring harness so i decided to hardwire it. But when i go to turn it on, it just lights up for a second saying 1:00 as the time and tries to take in a CD. then it shuts off two seconds later and won't turn on again without taking out the key and waiting 10 seconds and trying again. What the hell am i doing wrong? good ground and good hot wire. the accessory is attached too. same with the antenna. i took it back and got a new unit but the same model and it does the same thing?
 
It's time to actually read the instructions and follow them. Use the correct impedance speakers, don't short any wires or cross them and do not ground the speakers.
