Babs Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 on the wireing harness from the headunit, there's already a wire theretheoretically, there should be power anyway, but I've found that sometimes it doesn't quite work like that, so I always connect both to fixed live style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOCK Posted January 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 thankyou! i am confused though because i did it for the 'remote central locking ONLY' way, on my key entry car an it works!!!!?????!!!!!!!??????NOCK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_273 Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 Yep I did it the remote central locking way even though I only have key entry. I think the difference between remote and key only entry has something to do with the switch in the ignition barrel, though i dont know exactly how this affects the radio wiring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOCK Posted January 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 judging by our results, i'd say it doesn't!NOCK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
