the remote wire on my n3 stays hot(12 volts) any time that the ignition is on. i can take the face plate off and the wire still is hot. i can turn the unit off and the wire still has 12 volts. what is going on here??

You sure it's not shorting against anything else? I've seen that happen when there's a short between the yellow wire and it, or if when it's hooked to an amp a strand of wire from the battery lead is touching the remote lead of the amp.

Yeah, check that the wire isn't shorted at the amp. Also, do you by any chance have your switched lead hooked up to a constant?

i have unpluged the amp's and it is still hot, and i have checked to see if the acc. and the battery wires are crossed. and it is still the same. besides that, if those 2 wires were switched i would loose all my presets eerytime i turned off the truck.

i have the same problem. the blue lights on the fron of my unit never turn off either. does yours do that too? i think it was wired in wrong somehow. i can't think of what would have been connected wrong, but i really need to try and fix it
