My HU keeps rebooting on me. I think it is either a bad upgrade or a bad ground.

Anyone up and want to help me for a bit? haha I just need a garage!

LOVE TO HELP.......just drive to CT:lol:

Did you install yourself or have a shop? Sounds like it could be a ground issue as it keeps "refreshing".

Good Luck!

Installed myself, did everything properly, soldered all connections well, heatshrinked all soldered joints, everything is in a wire loom to keep everything neat and the ground is connected with a nyloc'ed bold/nut.

I'm thinking the ground location might just be bad...I'm thinking of maybe putting a jumper from that location to a few others inside there. It's actually fairly limited under there.

I'd say your on the right track, try lil obvious things 1st.

Thought I did, still rebooting. Got a few things to try after talking with Pioneer just haven't been around to try them. If those don't work I'm sending it back for them to fix.
