First, it would help to know exactly what car YOU have. They change the circuits & stuff over the years, and the functionality of the multiplexers.

My issue was the stock radio was draining my battery. If it sat for a week (vacation) the battery would be dead. I put a 12v normally open relay on the yellow line (powered by the red line). When the red line got power the yellow line would connect to the radio, when the power was off the yellow line was open. Solved my problem.

wouldn't this fix kill the radio keep-alive memory?
