Why does my power anteanna go down when I turn my headlights on? Do I have a fuse blown or a short? I will come back up as soon as I turn the lights off. Help!

yes, I replaced the head unit and I made sure that the power antenna wire in the car went to the power antenna wire on the deck, do you think maybe that connection being loose would cause that?

You think you wired the unit wrong it sounds like it. Goes up and down when you turn on the lights?

yes, it does that now, but not until tonight, I wired it to go up when the car was running, go down when it was shut off, it worked fine for about a month. Now I am scratching my head...................
