Permanate live to radio. What colour?
« on: 09 October 2010, 11:25:40 »

Im trying to put a non standard stereo in my omega, all went well but i have no permanent live to the stereo. Anyone know which colour wire is the perm live to the block that goes into the original stereo?
I bought the proper kit to do it but everytime i take out the key the radio stations and so forth are back to nothing.

red & yellow usually need swapping round. Kits I've seen have had bullet connectors on these two wires to enable you easily swap them.
