wtffff deck wont work ... again

ok so this is my 2nd poineer deck in 6 months that has fully well messed up. all of a suden it will just start randomly setting off the subwoofer and speakers. i have all aftermarket speakers with 1 4 channel amp for the speakers and a mono amp for the subwoofer amp and subwoofer. i have 3 sets of rcas running from the deck ( 2 to the 4 channel, and 1 to the mono) i dont know why it keeps doing this and it is realy pissing me off. i should not have to change the deck every 3 months because it keeps doing this. wtf is the problem and why does it keep doing this. i read that by not grounding the dekc properly u could blow a microfuse on the pioneer decks but i made sure and grounded this in 2 places and it still did it. wtf is the problem here???

sorry it will just go" boom boom boom boom boom" to no specific beat with the sub, speakers, and tweaters make a loud high crackling noise.

it also does this when the deck is off and plugged in.

Then its not the headunit, its something in the remote wire 90% sure.

Where is your remote wire tapped? Behind the HU?

Sounds to me like you have a bare wire somewhere grounding itself to something.

Take it to a pro if you don't know where your remote wire is.

What random ground are you touching to your HU? Why isn't the HU grounded somewhere?

Sounds like the remote wire is not connected properly. Meter at the amp and trace back.
