hi i am very new to these fourms , and also to the jeep cherokee... although this is the second one that i have owned , i bought my 2000 xj 3 days ago and the radio would not work , well the only execption is the AM radio on the factory radio. well it was also doing the NO BUS glitch when i would turn on the ac or heater blower on at all. so i wanted a radio that worked and i have put thousands of them in other vehicles so i hooked everything up and nothing... long story short the atenna is acting as the ground on either radio... and with everything unhooked i have no gauges... no odometer... and the lights on the dash that should be on with the head lights are on when the head lights are off and when they are on the gauge lights are off... please help me i am so stumped and ready to drive this thing off a cliff.... lol

 

you have a short somewhere.
