Default Fail to boot head unit [SOLVED]

All oem stuff. Recently my 06 fails to start-up the head unit, and then will just boot during some random time during the trip.

What causes this? I forget if there's a power relay or not.

Problem solved.

The ACC CUT relay was shot. This relay is used multiple times in the relay box. Best to just replace them (these ones) when they are this old, to avoid the nuisance problems.

That's the relay that cuts unneeded accessories when starting, right? I bet it gets a lot of contact wear.
