Default bad radio wiring?

I have a 2002 2500 and am curious If anyone else has had any issues with an after market radio. I just bought a BOSS radio and installed it my self I connected all the wiring properly. The first day I had it kept resetting after i turned the truck off. Then I messed with it at work the other day and I checked the wiring again. The constant and accessory wire are hooked up properly. Then after that it worked up on til yesterday... what do you think about me running a nwe constant ground and splice it into the current constant ground? Otherwise it may be the radio

if you have the infinity sound system then yes it has a factory amp on the passenger side behind the dash...dash has to be pulled to access it, and it can be a PITA when you have your own amp...

make sure you have no wires shorting out under the dash. its easy to pinch a wire while your installing the new radio.
