Sudden head unit power failure (1 Viewer)

[starclassic]

Greetings friends. I need some help with an electrical issue in my '99 LC. I was driving along when my Kenwood 2-din head unit went dark. I have since determined:

- No blown fuses (engine bay, driver's side kick panel)
- No power coming through the factory stereo harness (I pulled the dash apart and plugged the original factory stereo back in, no power)
- Stock radio antenna not getting power either (motor doesn't spin with ignition)
- In-dash factory 12V outlets (cigar and aux) also not getting power
- The rest of the dash works (HVAC, vents, etc)

I am super stumped. The radio was professionally installed, the wiring connections are nice and tight and well insulated. Has anyone had this kind of thing happen before? What haven't I checked???

For the stereo I would next look at the stock amp if it is still present and part of the system.
I have a 98 EWD at home and will take a look to see if the 12v outlets and radio are connected somewhere.
You are checking fuses in the drivers kick panel AND engine bay right?

Yes, checking in both places. So far everything looks good. I guess I need to pull the passenger seat out and look at the amp?
