in the car stereo wiring harness ,just at the back of the unit, there are two wires connected to the positive 12V, one of them should be connected direct to the battery.( the main supply and the memory supply)
both of them might have a separate fuse, the one with the lower fuse rating, typically 0.5A must be rerouted and connected direct.
there is a memory power lead (usually yellow) that must be hooked up to constant power. find a circuit in the car that doesn't cut off with the switch and hook the memory power lead to that. if the memory lead is properly attached, and has power even with the switch off, then the problem is internal to the radio and will have to be repaired. be aware, there is usually a fuse in the power lead to the memory, check the fuse also.

When I press the 'source' button on the head unit, the XM option no longer shows up. Also, the tuner station no longer recognizes stations that are NOT between 70 and 80 FM. The FM tuner does not even allow me to go past FM 80.0 before starting over at FM 70. The only 'source' on the head unit that still works is the CD one. I experienced this issue after changing the source from XM to CD. Once I did that, I could no longer change the source to any other option.

3 days ago my CDA 9835 quit working. the reset button doesn't even change anything. i've tried taking it on and off, doesnt change anything. there is not sound, the lights and display are on. When i turn the car on and off sometimes it will automatically tilt itself. i was able to insert a CD when it was tilted, and it thinks it is playing, but it's not. It keeps counting and changing songs. any ideas? i love this deck and don't want to have to buy a new one....
