I put my old pioneer head unit in my car and it won't hold memory. I have to redo my settings every time I get in the car! Any ideas? Cheers

Is the memory feed definitely a permanent live, or have you accidentally used an ignition live?

Probably a silly question but deffo worth double checking.

I just plugged the harness in lol I'm clueless about this stuff. It had two block connectors but the car has three. The two plugged in but there's a slightly bigger plug on the car that hasn't been used?

^^^ What he said, there are two lives to the headunit, you need to swap them round.

Swap the red and yellow cables over.

They're the Permanent and Ignition Lives.

There's bound to be a least one Batt+ feed in your stereo loom. If not for whatever reason, there's usually one in that area of the dash that you can nick power from.
