memory problems

[Ben]

hi, when i got my last headunit i remember that every time i switched the ignition off it lost all its memory settings, well i got a new headunit and its the same - i can remember someone told me to switch two of the coloured wires round but cant remember which ones or who it was - any ideas?

Switch the lives round mate, i.e constant 12V and switched 12V. Hope that helps.

cheers hugh - what colours woudl they be?

normally red and yellow, with red being the 12v positive and the yellow being the ignition wire. Also most wires have there name written on them as well, have a look at the car wiring
