Please help!! Audio wiring problem. Nissan N15?

Question

There are four wires which I can not remember what they are.
I think I figure out 3 of them (main power, memory and earth)
There is an orange wire left. CD player is working fine but dash/tail light is not working. If I connect the orange onto the memory, dash and tail light comes on even if igntion is switch off.

Where is this orange wire suppose to go? I though it should be connected onto the CD player but now I am having doubt that I might have accident rip it out from somewhere behind the dash that should be connect to the headlight switch.

Answer 1

You have an N15 Almera and from my memory the orange wire is for illumination, the memory wire you talk about is a contant live for that purpose (keeping memory for stations) So what you are doing is backwards feeding the illumination circuit and this will cause the dash and tail lights to come on, try connecting the orange wire to the illumination side of the stereo and when you turn on your lights the stereo should dim down.
Check fuses under bonnet for tail lights, You probably have blown fuse in stereo fitment.
Hope this helps.
