Alright, I had this issue happen to me last friday and it happen to me twice that day. It was weird, first time it ever happen. I was wondering if someone had the same issue.. I'm running a retro fit yes it works fine before you ask me all about the wires.. it has been working fine for months w/o any problem.. ok lets get back to the story.

I havent turn on my car for days since i finish my finals like 2 weeks ago and i dont go to school so my car hasnt been turned on. Then last friday i turn it on my car and my gauges lighted up and there was no power.. I then switch the key back to 0, then took out the key then stick it back in then my car started.. then the radio ask for the security code so i did put it in.. pretty werid iono why that happen.. this happen around 4pm.. and on my radio clock said 1 something so iono if that was the cut of time before the battery got d/c or something.. that following night it was like 3ish am in the mourning had a party so yea.. same thing happen again.. key in power went in but then died took out key then reput in the key power got in and car started. I had to put my code in my radio again.. since that friday til now today it hasnt have happen again.. does anyone know the problem?

Just as everyone else. Check the battery.

imtim25 · 12-27-2006, 02:26 PM

do you have any mods on your car that are hooked up that uses your battery? subs/amps or whatever? it could be that they require a lot of electricity...just a thought.

tennisfan16 · 12-27-2006, 02:29 PM

check battery.

KingMarineM16a4 · 12-27-2006, 03:09 PM

***Zeuceone*** · 12-27-2006, 03:10 PM

i think you should check the battery.

fg2k20z306 · 12-27-2006, 03:17 PM

i only have the ground wires of my retro fit to the battery thats all.. everything seems fine... ill go check it out to see if its loose or something.. I check the battery indicator its bright green this means its fine unless its dim green... then the battery coil needs to be charged..

KingMarineM16a4 · 12-27-2006, 03:26 PM

did you ground it correctly?
