Sony Xplod GT500

Ok, I just installed my Sony Xplod GT500 Headunit and i would have to say, it rawks :P

But, one little problem. It likes to turn off when I hit a bump SOMETIMES, not all the time, I assume my Red power wire is a little loose?

I used some Afro-American Enginnering (If you catch my drift), to get it up and running, but I'm taking it back under the knife Fridaynight to get my Amp and Subs installed. So, I would like to be able to fix the problems then and not 3 weeks down the road, so opinions, suggestions, anything!!


Thanks.

Well just make sure all connections are good and tight...You could take it all out and solder the connections...I did that on my last car...never had to worry about wires coming disconnected.

I have never had a solder joint come loose.
but we are talking about a sony
try using quick crimp connectors (radio shack) if you can't solder them.

if you want your install to please you for a long time, then SOLDER EVERYTHING.

no joking, it's totally worth it
