Aftermarket headunit gets constant power. Please help!
Ok, so I finally got a 07 Cruiser 2 weeks ago and I just now got to installing my aftermarket head unit, amp and sub. I went and picked up a wiring harness and I ran into a little problem. The constant power wire went to nothing. On the factory harness I have 2 red wires, 8 speaker wires and a ground. I hooked it up, after having to modify the aftermarket harness since the wire that supplies constant power to the HU went to nothing on the factory harness, and my HU stays on even when I turn the car off. Then I broke out the current detector and found what should be the memory wire since it the the one out of the 2 that had current going to it with the car off. So I rewired the aftermarket harness again and now I still have constant power running through both wires and my HU still stays on. Needless to say I'm about ready to pull my hair out. Also, I'm having a hard time finding somewhere to ground my amp in the rear cargo area. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I know I'm a newbie, but I searched through almost every thread and couldn't find any answers, so I'm sorry if this has already been covered.
