[QUOTE="req, post: 564616, member: 555713"] actually no it wont still power on... my friend had a blown fuse for the switched supply, this is only used to tell the HU to power on and off. we ended up having to hook the switched power supply (red) and the constant power supply [memory wire] (yellow) to the yellow wire. when we hooked red to red and yellow to yellow, the unit wouldnt power on. so i hooked it up like that, and when we turnd the car off, the settings dissapeared. it looks like whoever installed it, could not figure out why your switched wire was not working (red wire) and he hooked them both to the constant supply (yellow wire). first, check all fuses (in the engine bay AND under\drivers side on the dash) and replace ALL blown fuses, DO NOT put fuses in locations where the is no fuse to begin with. if all fuses are fine and not broken (should be ~20 fuses in the engine and in the car combined...) it might be the relay - big black box looking things in the fuse boxes... they are cheap to fix, but i dont know how to test if they are fried. but check the fuses, and tell us if you found a burnt\broke one, replace it.. and then hook red to red and yellow to yellow - if its like that already, and this does not solve your problem, i dont know whats wrong. hook the red to the red and the yellow to the yellow on the wire harness.
