Check your ISO loom on your headunit to make sure no connections/pins are loose.

Also with the unit out but still connected, try wiggling the connector on the back of the headunit, if it comes on and off it means that its a fucked solder connection inside on the board, should come under a warranty job.

If all thats ok run a new earth to the unit and give all your amps a checkover with a multimeter
