Problem with the head unit: power loss

Hey all, i got a big problem here . got back to my car this afternoon and found out that my entire head unit stopped working (aircon/radio/etc). however, it still dims along with the rest of the displays, so i don't think its got to do with the power. this happened once in the past, but i just banged it once and it started working again . i took apart the dash and looked over the head unit and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with connecting wires. is it a problem with the head unit itself? i haven't heard of anyone's hu just going out like this before.

Any feedback would be appreciated, otherwise its another trip to the dealer (and as usual they'll find good excuses to charge me extra or void my warranty by saying i have a sub installed and etc)

Dude, if under warranty....don't ever attempt anything by yourself. Let the dealer handle it. Cause if you truly mess anything up or even break a plastic clip on your trim, they might start doubting you. Just my two.

Take out the subs from the back maybe?

Its very easy to tell if someone has been "in" the audio unit. If there are witness marks on screws or clips broken or whatever and it dosent show in the infinitinet that there has been past work in that area your screwed.

The cutcuit board on the back of the main control pannel can loose power very easily with modded sound systems. Dont ask me how or why because I dont know, but the only times ive seen this problem are when there are mods to the audio system.
