    So i just got the car couple months ago decided i wanted a new HU. So i installed a pioneer one today and everything was looking promising till i started the car and my DIC was blank. The 3 buttons on the side and TC light up fine. Anyone know what happened? Thanks !

    You blew a fuse. Check fuse box under hood. Mine did that when I blew a fuse.

    Is it just DIM and still functioning or completely dead?

    Sounds like he burnt out the backlights. Shock when taking the dash apart or something may have finished off the bulbs
