help please. im trying to install a Pioneer KEH-P6800R. It was absolutley great when it was taken out of our *cough* megan *cough* but now its dying or dead.

ok, hook up -ve and +ve to battery (-ve black +ve yellow) and all that happens is the tape inside whirs and then nothing. Source wont turn on and its just dead after the whirring.
Its been in its box in the garage loft for 1yr and a 1/2 if that helps.

Don't you have a red +12v as well? Yellow = permanent +12v. Red = ignition +12v. Black = GND.

you'll need to connect both red and yellow to +12v to have a chance of it working. But if you can't be arsed....
