[QUOTE="bump465, post: 8516744, member: 660886"] if youre sure the radio works then I would suspect you hooked up your remote wire wrong. get a multimeter and find the 12v cable that is on when your car is on and off when car is off. You will not need to worry about loosing settings when you turn your car off because the unit will also be hooked up to a constant 12v source. If you ONLY plan on powering this radio you can use your cigarette lighter. I wouldnt because its tacky and i hate breaking things to get others to work. your radio puts out maybe 10-20 watt per channel so you will only need a 5-10 Amp fuse. stock vehicle wiring can handle this load. If you plan on hooking up an amp to power the speakers do NOT use the cigarette lighter. No matter how weak the amp is, it will pull waaaay to much power from your cigarette lighter. [/QUOTE]
