I fitted an older pioneer head unit in place of my orginal stereo last night, I used a Halfords VW ISO harness and all went well, There was a loose RED & Orange cable that I matched up to the original looms RED/RED & orange/Orange Yellow , I could not see a dedicated orange,
All work fine but it looks like I have powered the red off a permeant 12V supply so I need to manually turn on and remember to turn off when leaving the car.
I'm not sure what is the function of the orange cable if any, i did not not have a multimeter at hand.
From some googling it seem I need to run a 12v off the ignition from an ignition live out of the fuse box, (This i can manage but). but where should i splice this power supply Into ? do i leave the original Red activated or replace it ? there was no instructions with the supplied harness.
I'm not bother about running the radio with the ignition/accessories off.
