p4000 not working, maybe fried it?
Okay so i was trying to install my switch properly and as i was doing it i was listening to music and i accidently pulled the Ground wires apart and the unit shut off. When i tried to put them back together it does not turn out. Please dont say i fried it
OMG
First off never have the unit on while playing with the wires behind it.
Second whenever you have to pull the wires apart behind the deck or anywhere else in the car unplug the neg terminal on the battery.
Wan't to know why we do this?
So when the wires reconect we don't blow a fuse
I can't say for certain but I wouldn't stress about it too much, I think you just blew the radio fuse, bet you'll never do that again will ya!
On the passenger side below and infront of the cup holders is the fuse box, pull the panel off and check and most likely change the radio fuse, on the back of the panel you take off there is a diagram of the fuse box, find # 23 and pull it out.
BTW- If yours is like mine was, there were no spare fuses, so you might want to go buy some before you start this, oh yeah and finish wiring in whatever your doing before you put the new fuse in

Thank you for the reponse, i will go check it out right now
nope didnt work, i looked at it and it looked fine, and than i switched in a new one cuz i have extras and it still didnt work
BTW i have my acc wire going into the fuse above the Sunroof fuse. I dont konw if that matters or not

Check that fuse if you used a fuse tap, and check the fuse on the back of the P400o if there is one. should be right around where the wire clip in
Did you use a fuse tap for the acc wire?
Does your constant 12 volt wire have a fuse on it (yellow one from the HU) if so check it
If you have a multi meter now would be the time to bust it out of the tool box

So that wasnt the case either. So i tried to start my car cuz maybe there was something going on there and i noticed it would not start. it was dead. Got out the jumpers and started her up and boom, my HU works again. Someone E-Slap me.
Oh yeah I forgot about that
Under normal condition would rehooking the ground wire up wirth the power to the unit on blow the fuse or does the ant ground compensate for that

... lol well try running a ground wire and see what happens. you can ground the chassis too. your probably going to want to ground the rca jacks too because im pretty sure u blew the infamous pioneer pico fuse
