[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8830648, member: 674149"] Yeah you want to disconnect the remote wire from where you have it. That remote wire is the switch/ the (held in) power button. If you don't have a remote wire to hook it up to on the head unit, hook it up to an accessory circuit (which is what your head unit is on). It's very small draw, they are about 100-300mv, so you could hook it to any ACC circuit without worrying about the draw. What you did was hooked it up to a 12v, battery pos circuit. Your radio will have a 12v power circuit that always gives power and keeps your memory, and an accessory circuit, (that is the head unit's switch wire). Your options are: the head unit's remote wire (which is the factory's intended feed for what you want), your head unit's switch wire, or any accessory circuit. [/QUOTE]
