stereo wiring

[Yeomans22]

hello,

 

the radio resets when the ignition is off and i have to tune them all back in.

 

the yellow and red in this pic shows as being the memory

 

 

but that is only live when the ignition is on, so what wire should connected to the memory?

 

thanks

 

Paul.

memory should be perminant live, and live on the sterio should be on ignition.

[Yeomans22]

so the red in the pic needs to be swapped with the red and yellow in the pic?

 

thanks

[vibrating_Cake]

yeah is there 6 pins?!?!

sorry didnt see the red, yeh it seems like a case of just swapping them over

tiny screwdriver in the end, release the clip and swap them around

[Yeomans22]

yes 6 pins the white, blue and orange go no where, the red is in the power, the black in in the groud and the yellow and red is in memory atm.

Twin 48's are the only music you need to be listening to

Is the red getting a permanent live though? If it too is an ignition only live then swapping them won't solve your problem.

[Yeomans22]

yeah the red is always live, but the red and yellow only after ignition is on position 1

As above then, swap them over and you should be fine. Make sure the inline fuse is in the ignition live feed though.

[Yeomans22]

switched now, works great

 

the inline fuse is in with the wiring on the stereo side though is that ok?

It's fine on either side of the multiplug connection as long as it's in the ign live.............though come to think of it, there should probably be a small fuse in the permanent live too.
