tried wiring a head unit , jvc one to a mini. Fink i fucked the power cables up a bit. Could work out which one went where. Anyways the cd player sort of worked, no display or nefing, only fing that works is wen u press eject for cd it lights up and does some shit, then gives up and turn off. Is this cos i fooked up the wiring or cos the head unit is bust?

You need to actually turn the unit on first by pressing SRC or try reversing the red and yellow wires.
