Radio was working fine this morning on the ride into work. Got to work removed the faceplate section as I always do. After work replaced face plate section and nothing. Radio will not power up and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Happened to me once. Check and make sure you didn't bend any of the contact pins. Or maybe they're super dirty? I cleaned my contacts with a Q-tip moistened with alcohol and it worked.

Tried cleaning connections with no luck. Just because I disconnected the cars battery let it sit for 10 mins. Reconnected battery started car up and low and behold radio works. Very interesting and I would love to know what happened.
