Thanks for that tip. I did remove the metal guide and alarm wire and was able to slide the radio in until it locked. The Radio still did not power up. The red security indicator did flash occasionally with key off, but when I turned the key on there was no display or indication that the radio powered up. I checked all fuses and connectors (multiple times) and eventually re-installed my old radio to ensure it all still worked and it did....

Anyone else have this problem? Is the metal guide needed for grounding or some other reason before the radio will enable?

I also checked all the pins on the faceplate and ensured they were clean and making contact.

Thanks.
