Hey, i have been looking through this forum for quite awhile but have never posted but i have a question now.....Okay i took my dash trim out to paint it white...and somehow i got a wire disconnected..so i looked at it and i connected a red wire coming from the harness from my car to the main power coming from the radio(yellow wire) and my radio will work..but only when my headlights are on..and also everytime i turn the headlights off my clock resets...and also my power seat belts will not work until i turn the headlights on...does anyone know what is wrong? i know it cant be to complicated..im sure its just a wire in the wrong place..i just dont know which one..alright thanks

lol ur power wire (remote) for the deck is connected to ur illumination haha....
i say recheck ALL the wires.What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.
You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

I fixed it...
well i fixed my problem...it turns out the red wire i plugged into the yellow wire should not have been plugged in there..so i unplugged it.....and also i checked all my fuses and the "backup radio" fuse under the hood was blown so i replaced it and now my radio works when my lights are off and on...but still i have two red wires that are no connected anywhere...does anyone know where they go? my radio works fine without them but i would think they have a place to be...thanks for your help guys...i really appreciate it.
