ok so when i bought my car the audio wiring was ghetto rigged but it worked. it came with an old Pioneer deck and it sucked so i bought a brand new bad ass Alpine deck and hooked it up just like the pioneer was hooked up and got nothing.

so now im running my deck with my ING (yellow) and BATT (red) together. it works but it wont hold memory anymore. everytime i turn my car off i lose everything and the integra's clock resets too! all fuses are fine.

anyone know how to hook up these decks in DC4s or atleast know of a good write up. im usually pretty good with these types of things, but this has got me stumped and frusturated

did you check the fuses under the hood? I know on a Civic there is a "back-up" fuse that is for the clock and the radio among other things

Also - yellow is battery and red is ignition

you have no memory because your memory wire and 12v wire are wired together...find an accessory source for the ignition wire and leave the yellow wire on 12v

while that is partly true - the radio would stay on all the time if he had constant behind the radio - so he has ignition there....
best bet is to fix the fuse so it is wired and fused correctly - next option is to find another source for your constant wire - best bet is the fuse box under the dash, there is usually some open pins for ignition, constant, and sometimes park lights there

ok as i have mine hooked up (dc2) i have the yellow (ignition) hooked up to the an accesory wire. then the blue (memory) hooked with my red (12+) which i have hooked up to the wire that is constant on.

can you post pictures of the cd player wiring and the car wiring? so i can help you wire you from here

your's is all messed up too, lol
yellow is constant 12v
red is switched 12v
blue is power antenna or remote turn on for your amp

so you need to switch the red and yellow and disconnect the blue completely

then you have some cheap swap meet deck
because the colors are all standardized on aftermarket radios
