Sounds like there's a loose ground or something. You might wanna do your typical continuity tests. If there's no continuity it's obviously a loose connection or the unit is bad. You might wanna check out Free online auto repair manual for the masses. Recession Proof. - Garage411 they usually have this kind of stuff.
