Make sure your dimmer isn't on all the way up. Open and close your door couple times

Yeah the switch is all the way down. My hatch closes fine. Idk. The radio is aftermarket and I notice they clip the wiring instead of buying the radio kit. Idk.

Maybe something shorting out in there. When did it start? After how long? All of a sudden?
