    Headunit turns off when Vtec engages

    when i hit vtec my headunit will turn off
    then back on after 5-7 seconds when out of vtec
    what could be causing this?
    this is in a em1 wtih b16a
    only mods to car are Pod filter and lowered.

    could be a loose power wires and when u vtak, it pushes the head unit back and loose the connextion. since it turns off, i think you should check the power wire coming out from your head unit to the power source and see if there is any damaged.

    I've checked all power/ground wires, nothing is loose or damaged.

    The Engine is drawing so much power in vtec. That it sucks all the voltage from the battery. I think u better down grade your motor. Or at least look at a bigger alternator and battery to handle all that power and current drawn during vtec!


    Other than the reason above. I doubt it be a ground from the motor to the chassis. As the inner car circuits have a separate ground! Pull your deck out and check the wiring. Also check the fuse box to see that the fuse in in correctly. not half hanging out!.

    on a more seirous note, is your alternator keeping up? Does anything else die?

    take your head unit out and check if the plugs and wires are loose !
