i think i'm going to change out my tuner for a different one

anyone know where i can get the older 901 kenwood tuner? i want that one as it uses the duel input antenna and i already have that type of antenna installed

thanks!

Make sure you have 12 volts at the tuner.  I had the same problem only in XM form, and it turned out I had a bad ground.  After I repositioned the ground, everything was a-ok. 
Bravadas are cool

check the pins on the cable, make sure none are bent, also make sure that none are pused in, ive seen sometimes the pins will get pushed back into the plug so when its plugged in the pin wont make contact with the connector inside the deck/tuner

all the pins are good, the tuner is supposed to get the ground through the cable to the head unit

but i think i'll go try running a seperate ground wire to make sure that's working

i ran a seperate ground and it worked, but when i moved the ground to a more secure place it stopped working

i've tried a few different places and still no go;

Sounds like you may have a wire that is broken on the inside of your connecting cable of that you have a bad pc board in your turner.

I would assume this because when you move the unit it works and than sometimes it does not.  keep everything plug up and carefully move your sirus tuner around and see what happens.  Also, play with the cables while the unit is on and see if it turns on and off as you play with the wires.

the connnection cable is brand new and i've tested each pin and they have conductivity; i would suspect the tuner as it was bought off ebay in "as-is, untested" condition
