Default Need Some Help and Thoughts!!

Ok So C5, am changing my aftermarket headunit (from a Pioneer 4000ub to 5000UB, Long story). So I figure wire her up in my Lab, pop it in and let her rip... not so much. I have to remind you the ACC wire from the headunit has already been run to the correct power wire (because it worked before). So I check every wire on my wiring harness and it all looks good, check the headunit in another car, works fine. what the hell man... Why am I not able to get power to my headunit? Please if you have any ideas let me know, the only thing that has changed between installs is that I hooked up a Window Valet.

as long as you have the ground, acc, and 12v constant powered by a source that has the correct amperage, it should work

OK, I found out that the Yellow wire from the passenger side of the underdash that carries the 12V ACC, is not getting power, anybody know what fuse this is connected too? It is the Yellow wire from the 3 wire harness, I think the other wires are orange, and red or something. But the Yellow wire used to have power to it, and now does not.

oh.. i totally misunderstood your post. i thought you were trying to hook it up in your lab and listen to it off of a power supply (not in the car)
