Haha that's a sin. Just kidding. I just took a kenwood out and replaced it with a stock. Anyway, What vehicle? Did you use the electrical harness or hard-wire it?

You should check all your grounds at radio and engine. Make sure you ground it to the body. Make sure you have good ground between battery and body.
