First off what is the head unit? second what harness did you wire up....did ou use the aftermarket adapter harness for the civics? that plugs into the stock harness....
also you may have wired it incorrectly sometimes the yellow and red need to be switched....and sometimes you need to hook up a ground wire..but inm civics i never had to do that....

kenwood kdc-mp142, i bought a new aftermarket harnes and i am pretty positive i wired it correctly, i may try a ground wire to my car and switching the wire.

if everyhting is correct then check a fuse it might be missing power.. and honda doesnt need an antenna adapter nor does it have anything to do with your stereo turning on its only to use the radio
