Hello, after multiple years of not having a radio in my car I decided to purchase a oem radio and amp. I plugged in the amp, put the oem radio in and it worked perfectly... for about 20 minutes. It cut out a few times and now It won’t make any noise at all. I had an extra used oem amp that I plugged in to see if it made a difference and it still did nothing. I checked the antenna on the drivers side C-pillar and nothing seemed visually wrong. Any ideas on what to check and how to get the radio to work? Thanks

Check fuses?

1 fuse under the hood in fuse box, 1 on the back of the headunit, and 1 on the amp. Check both amps you used to see if its good

So I checked fuses and everything was good, I used a volt meter to test the plug to the amp and the White wire which I believe should have voltage with ignition on had no power. I followed the wire and found that a mouse had chewed through it. Fixed it and radio works great, thanks for all the help.
Glad to gear! Now if only I can get the radio to work on my other vehicle.
