I wired up a FM Modulator this past weekend, which involved finding a +12v and a gnd. I probed the back of the radio with my test light, but could not find a +12v that was controlled with the ign switch. Then I found a wire that was installed by the previous owner and cut and taped. I checked it and it was +12v switched. So I wired to that, and reinstalled everything. The problem is that when I turn the key off, the modulator turns off, but the radio stays powered until the door opens. Not a big problem, except when the modulator powers down, there is a loud burst of static through the speakers, and it annoys the hell out of me. Any suggestions on where I can get a power source that will allow the modulator to stay powered anytime the radio is. Thanks.

Heres a link to another thread which includes all the audio pin outs check the list for the proper pin to tap into. Hope this helps.

12V constant is the red wire, take ur 12v switched from the fuse box with a fuse tap.

I looked at this, but not sure which of the wires is going to give me the desired result. I am wondering if the radio off is a signal sent over the GM LAN line? Any help would be appreciated.

constant is the yellow

yes there is no switched accessory wire in our harness. its all done thru gm lan and i would highly recommend you dont tap or mess with that at all. its very sensitive and replacing the bcm isnt going to be fun if **** hits the fan

Use a fuse tap to the sunroof fuse. retains the rap and doesnt **** over your whole electrical warranty

Thanks, I thought I was losing my mind when I was probing the harness. I will check out the sunroof fuse.
