    Default Yet another stereo wiring prob

    Right. I removed the cd30 from my 54 vec c and put a cheap tevion single din in for hands free etc and everything worked fine. Ign on stereo powered up. Turn ign off stereo stayed on till I removed key just like standard. Now I've put new double din in it wouldn't even turn on and I traced the fault to no power down ign live wire. No voltage at all. I can't seem to find if ign live wire is fused. Constant live is fine. Any thoughts? I've had to jump ign live from cig lighter jut to tide me over but would like it working the way tevion did. Cheers

    Youll maybe find that you need to swap red wire with yellow behind stereo. Sounds like you have it on constant live instead of switched/ign.

    It's just wierd that the tevion crap worked fine wi can but this one wont. Maybe plug tevion back in see what happens or if really necessary I'll take ign live from back of key.

    Update. I have put the old cd30 radio back in and disconnected the ign live I ran from cig lighter so all is back to standard. The stereo will not turn on. I have checked the 20 amp fuse its fine. There is a constant live to stereo. It seems again as though whatever power comes from ign to stereo is not there. Any suggestions? Is there another fuse. The stereo manual troubleshoot says something about vehicle security?
