Default 12V Red Wire For CD Player Not Hot

So as the title says, the red 12V constant isn't pulling any power, but the yellow 12V is, anyone got any idea as to how to fix this?

If you're wiring up an aftermarket radio, Red isn't constant. Red is switched 12v, and yellow is constant.

Either way, you've got a fuse blown. Check the radio fuses (there's two of them), 1 under the dash and 1 under the hood.

Neither fuse is blown.

You guys should really think before posting that.

Thats the most common thing to check.

There is a fuse on the harness more than likely.

But both fuse in the lower area and under the hood were ok.

If you'd been around this forum for more than 20 seconds, you would know that your question is probably the most commonly one asked in here. Oh and guess what? 9/10 times it is a fuse, so no need to get lippy

Do you own a multimeter?

Guess where you probably fit in. 94
