Hi
Inspite of having checked all the fuses (including the one at the back of the unit) our radio runs for a few minutes after being put reinstalled and then goes completely dead. This usually occures after the ingnition is turned on and off. We have even tried wiring it direct.

Really appreciate your help

if the radio does not work,( you did right thing to check the fuse,) check for power to the unit. change the fuse to make sure it good, because a visual check is not enough.
if the fuse is good and there is no power to the unit, check for an open circuit between the fuse and the radio.If there is power to the unit, but still does not work,remove it and send it to the service facility that spesializes in radio repair.
