Did you check the fuses under the hood. The fuse box is by the battery. That same thing happened to me when I installed my HU. Now I know why they say disconnect the battery terminal.

im sure you already fixed the problem...when people have this happen after putting in a new CD deck they usually run the dimmer wire to the CD player to the wrong wire so it sends a power signal back to the dash shuttin it off
