MX-3.com

I own a mx-3 and now Im the proud owner of a 94 talon tsi awd. Im repacing the stock stereo with an aftermarket cd player (the one I had in my mx) I found the batt lead and the neg. along with the all time power wire. I hooked it all up and it worked, I hooked up the speakers and it sounds good. Only thing is is the all time powere supply is not giving all time power. I know its the right wire because I tested it. I tried screwing the unit in to the metal brackets bewcause I know they ground to the frame and still no all time power. I think I might need a seperate ground for the all time wire but Iv had no luck. Any Ideas. Thanks

upgrade turbo, suspension

Make sure you have the car turned off with keys out of ingition & test the wire for a constant power supply. If you do not have a constant power that is not the right wire.

What did you test the wire with?

A light up tester a Volt meter?

Make sure you have a good ground on the light up tester.

I checked the all time power wire and it does have powere all the time, Im stumped. Thanks for the help.

If this is what you got and it's still messing up on you. Then run a new fused wire from your battery, then you know it will be good.

if its a second gen talon get ready for crank walk really soon

I find it kind of funny that half these posts have nothing to do with the question :p
