Some Sony Units require you the press the reset button after the install
before the unit will turn on.
Try pressing the small reset button behind the faceplate

I just purchased a new Sony XplodCDX-F5710. I connected it via a set of
Metra Smart Cable harnesses. I haven't been able to get teh unit to power
up.

Checked the fuse. put an OHM meter on the harness got 12V. Am I missing
something here? Is there something special I need to do to power up the
unit?
