I'm installing a new Pioneer MVH-350BT but it loses all memory when the car is switched off. I understand this is a problem with the 12v constant wire but I don't know which one to change. The yellow is marked 12v+ constant but it seems to be connected properly from the unit to the ISO block. Very grateful for any help.

blue/white is an amp turn on wire it is only needed if you have an aftermarket or factory amplifier in the car. It can also be used if you have a power antenna and there is not a power antenna wire in your harness. Yellow/white I don't recall ever seeing in a wire harness are you sure it is not orange/white? If it is orange white then it is a dimmer and you could hook it up to orange white on your harness or just cap it off and leave it alone. The yellow wire is your 12Volt constant power wire. This needs to go to a constant source of power and the red wire needs to go to a switched source of power. If you do the power wires wrong you will drain you battery fast.
