Hey guys, so I think I finally figured out the sound issue I was having. I ended up buying a MOST fiber optic bypass loop and connected it to the SAT unit in the trunk. That seems to have done the trick. Finally. After 3 months of dealing with on/off audio issues. I started a new post and will be posting a video tonight. Thanks activereality for all of your help. I learned a lot.

Hi kasbek1. I purchased the same wiring harness. Were you able to confirm that the yellow wire should be connected to constant 12V?

Yep, that goes to the constant.

Just wanted to update you on the issue I was having with the units constantly changing from imperial to metric on start up. I re-read the posts and you were right about wiring the 12v wire to the battery.

I thought I had solved the problem but the problem persisted. After running the 12v to the battery, I haven't had an issue. Only when I haven't started the car in a week will it automatically cut whatever power is still going to the head unit and restart the memory. I should've listened to you back in January!

I also had a random ear piercing screech that would play through the speakers (maybe once out of every 10 starts) and that has gone away too now. I did go into the settings and turned amp off (was told I should turn it off since I have a factory amp) so not sure if that's what did it or the 12v rewiring but I now have a perfectly running unit.

Just wanted to thank you again for the help a few months back and give you an update. I saw you bought the same harness so figured this info might help.
