Any pictures of the wires. Should have a fuse on the power wire and remote wire. Also make sure there are no bare wires that could make contact with the truck or the housing of the deck.

Okay......so most common radios have 4 channel, that's 8 wires for the speakers, and 3 wires for power. Sooo 11 wires total. Now you start out by saying that there is 2 fuses per wire when you got it. That equals 22 fuses. You took off 1, we are down to 11 fuses. Buuuut now when you pick up the radio you pop 5 fuses in each wire? Hmm that's 55 fuses. And now you want to know whats wrong....

A) You don't know what a fuse is.

2) You are trolling forums.

Z) All of the above and for the sake of your safety never touch ANYTHING that has a wire in it.

Post a pick or forever be a forum troll!
