    I have just replaced my clarion head unit with a Sony CDX 300 GT. I
    have used the PC99-X24 lead with the sony fly lead so that I can use
    the steering wheel stalk.

    The installation manual mentions about yellow and red wires for the
    auxilliary and perm live feed but is a little vague to say the least.
    I have left yellow to yellow and red to red.

    With the ignition off the cd will eject but the unit will not go on.
    With the ignition key turned to acc position the stereo turns on and
    functions correctly.

    The Sony does not lose memory settings or clock (clock doesnt show
    with ignition off)

    The old clarion head unit would turn on with ignition off until
    economy mode kicked in.

    How do I make the sony go on with the ignition off?

    Thanks in advance

    First thought is take the always-on-12V to the main switched 12V as well,
    (It'll flatten the battery if you ever forget to turn it off of course ;-)
