New head unit wiring problem So I just installed my new Alpine 7864 head unit and it works fine but I have one problem. The HU wont turn on automatically when I turn the car on, I have to manually push the power button on the HU for it to light up. I also bought a wiring connector off of ebay to hook up so it would just plug in. I had to hook the yellows and reds together for it to work or my gauges (speed, odometer, tack) wouldn’t work. Any ideas?
Also, 2 different plugs came out of the back of my stock radio but I only used the bigger one for the new HU.
