Sure beats meecies;) :D Ah'l have tae take the radio oot again till ah gets me Mud console:rolleyes: :D
Just havin a slight problem with it though, can't get the bugger tae stay on after ah've switched the enjin off but left the keys in. Haven't connected the orange wire to anything yet, so ah wonder if that's got summit to do with it:confused:
 
orrange wire should be illumination, i.e. dims the headunit when yer lights are on, normaly connected to yer side lights.
what wire do you have your ign+ feed connected to? get a multi meter on the back of your ign barrel and find the wire that stays live with the ign off but with the keys in and wire the radio to that.

Aye the orange does say illumination, might be an idea to connect that then if it dims down cos when the radio is on, it's like a feckin juke box:eek: :D



The grey connectors were already on, so put a multimeter thingy onto these wires and they all checked oot okay. Tried swappin the red and yellow wires around, but it didn't keep the memory settings
 
Hey Buster have you got a brown/black wire connected to your battery, an if you have wot terminal does it go to + or - an wots it do, Mines not connected to the battery its either bin cut off or worn off, an connects to the main injun harness behind the bulkhead but I can't find where it goes after that.

Sorry Grunt but ah couldn't find one. In the pic of battery(^ ^ ^), it's just a brown one, and on the engine side of bulkhead ah couldn't find it either. Plenty of plain browns and plain blacks
