Well you haven't exactly flooded us with information!

Stock R32 headunit? aftermarket?

Anyway, I'd be checking for power at the back of the HU first... like get a multimeter (or a simple 12V test probe) and check for power between ground and both the +12V battery wire and the ACC wire. If there's power there, the headunit is buggered... if not it might be the fuse in the fusebay...

Good luck!

Yep, fuses... Kick panel, engine bay... check them first...

oh sorry its an aftermarket headunit.

i check all the fuses under the steering wheel and the engine bay all seem fine.

ill test the power coming out of the cables when i get home.

thanks alot for the info

yea i checked back there, but my headunit unfortunatly doesnt have a fuse back there.=[ i was really hoping it was that

pulled it apart.

...pull it all apart and wire again? if its not the fuses then maybe just a bad earth...
