    Yesterday my head unit did not power on when I started my 2016 OR. Of course I shut it off and back on first. Fuses are good that are labelled radio 1 and radio 2 in the fuse box underneath the hood. Any best practices someone has that have had a similar issue?

    Did it just not turn on at or reset a few times? Mine does occasionally, not often, few times a year maybe

    When I start the truck it does not respond at all.

    Removed the head unit and reinstalled it about an hour later and everything is working again. So the minions must've fixed it.
