my friend has a 89-91 Teg (i think thats the year) and he got a panasonic head unit...

he's letting me use it so when i took it out Circuit City ran a red wire from the cd player wire harness to the fuss box that had ACC on it. i was told that since his car was a 89-91 that it used that line to turn it on when the keys are in the on position.

i have a 96 Ek and i didnt have a place for this wire so i just left it out. When i plug everything up the Cd player doesnt work. Im pretty sure its getting power because the little red security light is blinking (when the face is off)

i checked the fuses and replaced the back up radio fuse in the engine bay and it still didnt work.

am i checking the right fuses? why isnt it working? please help me

driving with no music sucks

thanks francis

 

that red wire is the accesory wire, it tells the radio when to turn on,
it should be behind your radio (it should also be behind the radio in the integra)
find a wire in the radio harnass that has 12V while the ignition is in the on position and connect that wire
