Radio Gets No Signal After Aftermarket HU Swap

So, I hate to start a new thread about anything to do with the radio in our cars, but I've searched for hours trying to find a solution to my problem with no such luck. So, after having swapped my stock Clarion HU with an aftermarket 7" flipscreen TV HU, my radio suddenly doesn't get any signal. I've checked the connections and they're all solid and everything else works great. I'm wondering if its a problem with the antenna in the windshield (I remember being told there was a module for the antenna somewhere in the back, perhaps it's not gewtting power???). Anyway, has anyone had this problem, or just have suggestions? Thanks!

Are you sure whomever installed it connected the antenna? It should the antenna adapter:

You need to hook up the power antenna lead.

Okay I'll try that. My brother installed my system for me, so I'll just take it back out and have him try that (I'm not very handy with anything electrical). Thanks for the responses!

I betcha he didnt hook it up cause he didnt think ya needed it. But, its a amplified antenna and needs a 12v power source to work.
