Upgraded Radio won't turn off automatically?

[Thom]

I have a JVC cd player in the veccy with the steering wheel controls connected up via autoloeads wiring.

The problem is now we've connected it all i have to manually switch it off every time i turn the car off.

Any ideas how i can fix this?

cross over the red and yellow power wires so they go red-yellow and yellow-red

[Thom]

I think that's what we've done to make it work in the first place mate because it wasnt originally. i'll double check!

Are you using the autoleads steering control lead also?

[Thom]

Yeah both the patch kit and the other part required, both suited to the radio and car, however my original wiring does appear to have been somewhat butchered - however doesnt appear to be causing any problems appart from this perhaps!

However radio worked perfectly before we installed this new wiring.

Ahh i had a similar problem when installing the patch lead. You have to add another wire the the plug iirc. For the life of me i can't remember where to put it. I will keep searching

[Thom]

Cheers mate, i really appreciate the help as little things like this really REALLY annoy me!

There is a white and orange wire on the plug. Connect the red wire to that and it will work
