Default sony head unit problem

So other night when I was coming home from work, my head unit decided to just turn off on its own. It made the three or four beeps it normally does when i get out of the car and its powering off. Plus the cd will still go in and out, that tells me that its still getting power. I took my subs out about two days before this happened, the sub power on wire was still hooked up, but i took the fuse out for the main power wire to the amp. Anyone have an idea whats going on? Ive only had the unit for about four months. Thanks

Check the RADIO fuse. The head unit has two power sources protected by different fuses. The RADIO ACCY fuse provides constant (battery) power for the memory, clock, and CD eject mechanism. The RADIO fuse provides ignition controlled power that runs everything else.
