the amp isnt giving me any problems other than the popping noise that is very common, which i was able to fix. What would happen if i didnt connect the red wires at all? i think was is happening is the ignition is getting constant power and thats why its trying to start, but why only in park, reverse and neutral and not in drive.... hmmmmm

Technically,the yellow wire is 12volt constant,and the red wire is 12volt switched.

do you have the wiring diagram so i can make sure that the wire isnt in the wrong slot and therefore going constant? also am i correct to assume that the reason for the ignition trying to start is because the ignition wire is getting a constant 12 volt?

thank you.... also, I dont know if you saw it when I posted the question earlier. What would happen if I just didnt connect the ignition wire and therefore possibly solving the problem? would the radio stay on always or what? sorry for a dumb question, just dont want to start a vehicle fire.... =D

Do you have a meter,power probe,or a test light?What you really need to do is find out what is supplying that pink/white starter wire with power.Do you have an after market alarm/remote start?

The pink/white wire is located off the ignition switch under the dash,(ignition harness)something has to be suppling power to that wire in order for the car to start when the light switch is turned on.
