Hmm, my car has a a switched ignition feed, the radio wont come on unless the ignition is turned on.

Maybe Al's handiwork if it's not standard

Jamo, Mine is wired so that the ignition can be off but it will play as long as the key is in the ignition.

It is down to personal choice but I prefer the switched feed now that it is working.

light buzzer on when stereo on

Hi,
Cany anyone help?
is it normal for the light buzzer to sound when the engine has been turned off and the headunit is on. but this goes off when the face is removed?
cheers H

it doesnt do that on my car, it may be that the feeds for mem and live are the wrong way around maybe?

If someone has taken a switched +12v feed from the aux power lines (such as cig lighter I think) then it'll activate the warning buzzer. Thats what mine does.

Just need 2 check

where does the switched live from the ignition go 2 and where should i splice in to it.
could it cause any problems

Where else can i take it from that is closer

I need a switched live because i wanna install a handsfree kit.

If you ever need a switched ignition then just find any black/blue wire

[Paulgo]

Yep look for any black / blue wire! Drop the tray under the steering wheel and there's a one roughly in the area where the grab for the bonnet release is. I spliced into that wire for both my boost gauge and Silver bullet. Much easier than trying to mess around with the ignition etc

cheers

Defo Does NOT have a switched feed (93 L Model) I checked everywhere! David if you can provide any more detail then I would be much obliged. I am going to have to have the lower dash off again anyway to run the speaker cables to the Amp...

Cheers for all your help.

Steve.

Terminal 15. Switched 12V +

Black coloured wire, found amongst the jumble of wires under the dash. No particular black, any will be switched, fat or thin.
