Car radio resets settings when turning car off?

[ThatSheep]

Hello,

Since I've fitted my Sony CD Player in my car, I noticed that the settings always reset after turning the car off (Radio channels, what it was last doing etc).

I've read that this is because where you connect the 2 black cables to the car, these may need swapping around.

I have tried swapping these but they don't fit if I swap them.

Then people are saying to swap the yellow & red wire.. Is this safe?

Take it out and swap the white and red wites over. They should have connectors on them already

Whoops just read the last bit. Thats a yes then haha

Haha

I will check this when I get home from work.. So it's not the 'big connector' pieces that I'm swapping, it's the wires inside the connectors?

For example;


Am I changing the red and yellow wires on the black adapter piece?

Yes its the inner wires themselves but im sure its white and red. Couldnt be different with that adapter. Give it a try im 99% sure itll work
