Coastie3708 Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 I have a 2006 VW GTI. I went to install my d3 in last night and after color matching ALL of the wires, i plugged the harness into the back and the fan turned on and it booted up! I did a few searches on here but couldnt find anything related to this. I found one on here talking about his battery being drained all the time but gave no indication that was the same problem i have. please help me gurus! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Coastie3708 Posted April 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 no i colormatched everything. even if the key is out it will turn on. it wont turn off! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cntrylvr79 Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 That's because there is no accessory in your car. You'll have to dissconect the red wire of the avic and run it to an a ignition source. Be it at the fuse box or at the ignition harness itself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
