- I recently changed my car therefore transferred my cd player my new but each time I switch my engine off after a couple of minutes the cd resets itself losing preset stations and equalizer settings. I have been informed that there are two power wires one for memory and the other for key on power and that the memory must have power regardless of key on or off but is there anything I can do to set it or do I have to go to a service shop to get this rectified?? Please help!

nothing wrong , there are two power wires , one for memory and the other for key on power , memory must have power regardless of key on or off

- if you feel confident in fixing the power wire issue then there are a few ways to do it , one is run a 10-12 guage wire from positive battery terminal to the memory wire on the radio , please use some kind of fuse no farther than 10 inches from battery between the radio and battery 10 to 15 amp , or find a hot wire under the dash and tap into that but it could cause other problems , or consult factory wire diagram for factory radio and use those wires , this would be best
