So i'm going to bring this thread back from the dead and share some issues I recently had. Like others have said I occasionally had my gauges go dead and would have to shut the car off and turn it back on to get them back. Had this happen 3 or 4 times since installing my new stereo in January. Thursday, I was coming back from a pretty long road trip and on the way back all of a sudden the radio stops, and smoke starts pouring out of the dash. I pull over (I was doing 80 on the interstate, so I was freaking out pretty bad) and shut it off and it's still smoking horribly out the dash and radio area with a plastic burning smell. Long story short, I think a wire shorted out from the PAC box and almost burnt down my car. I'll let the pictures do the talking.
