Pioneer DEH-1800UB set up

derekE222 · 2016-01-07 11:08:01

Hi, I recently bought a Pioneer DEH-1800UB but every time I turn on the car it asks to set up and does not retain any of the settings. I have followed the instructions in the manual but cannot see why i would need to set up the receiver every time i turn on the car Thanks

It's not wired correctly. You need a 12v permanent & a 12v switched live, connected correctly for the radio to retain memory & work properly. It might be as simple as swapping the live feeds around on the wiring loom or else you'll need to run a switched live from the fuse box, depending on your car.

Swap red and yellow (IIRC) wires.
