dazzyvr6 0 Posted November 9, 2003 with mine,as soon as you take the key out it shuts off,and you can turn it back on by just pressing the ignition barrell Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted November 9, 2003 Basically depending on the car there are 3 ways of wiring in the stereo... On Sony units, there is a yellow and red wire on the adapter that need to be swapped over (plugs should be already there for this) for it to turn on and off with the ignition. If this doesn't work i suggest you get the wiring checked and put back to ISO standards. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
