Well I'm not recieving any power to my HU. I checked the HU fuse and the one near the clutch and they are both good.

I grabed an old school voltmeter and I touched the postive to the 12v constant (R/y) and the negative to the 12v Switchable acc (B/W) and the power level is low.

I tried grabbing a little bulb and touch each side, and it didn't light up.

Also I only get power if I connect 12v constant from HU to 12v switchable wire from the car, and 12v switchable from HU to 12v constant from car.

Any idea whats going on?

Sorry if this is confusing.

probably a cut in the line, rerun the factory power line from the fuse box, to the stereo. you know its fine at the fuse box, so go from there.

I don't see where the 12v ACC runs too. It's only that wire. R/Y.

Why would there be a cut somewhere?

wires get old, and brittle, and can brake over time.

It's going to be very hard to locate where it's cut. Does Hyundai dealership service this?

no man, touch the positive meter lead to the constant power wire, and the negative lead to any ground spot on the car. then, do the same with the switched power wire, turning on the ignition to make sure it gets power when it should.
