I suggest you first check the wiring. Do you still have the wiring diagram attached to your unit? It should look like the one in the attached picture.
Make sure the red and yellow wires are correctly attached, most important you should have permanent 12V on the yellow wire - even with no key. The red wire gets 12 V only with the key on "accessories" or "ignition". Also make sure you have a good ground, i.e. the voltage measured between the unit housing and the car frame should be 0.
If all these check then you can go look at the capacitors and see if any one of them smells funny or has bulging tops.
HERE is a great article on filtering capacitors and how to check them.
