After searching through old posts I am rather confused, felicia wiring has no switched live for stereo, but 2 perm lives?

The new unit will only turn on (which it does automatically) with ignition on/engine running. Turn ignition off and HU turns itsself off too, losing all settings/stored stations etc.

It seems with Fellys and aftermarket HU's the usual problem is the HU is always powered? This is how i want it! (Use radio a lot with car stationary)

Factory fitted unit also powers itsself on/off on ignition but can also be turned on/off without.

Replacement unit is a Pioneer DEH-2400UB.

Any advice?

cheers!

the usual loop from perm live to switched live has been cut and replaced with another wire it seems.

Anyone have any clue? Cant find my Haynes either :(

Problem solved, pulled the above wire and put loop back

hi there i had to wire my head unit to battery as my head unit was to powerfull for them thin wires. even modded it to take 120amp alternator from a polo some people like head unit to go off with key but sadly the felicia does not have this but you can do above

how powerful?

i should probably do the same..

If he turns it up to 11, you should be able to hear it in Birmingham

^ Spinal Tap, 11 on the amp

head unit is 50w x 4 = 200watts just run wire to battery with a inline fuse and same grade wire for a ground stops all the lights flickering with the heavy bass line

its even more powerfull now rainbowfire need a "fun truck" for the space
