Hey guys, I just picked up a new clarion HU for my car. I'm having trouble installing it though. Its the DXZ545MP. I dont know how to wire it to power it up. It has 2 yellow wires, one red wire, and one black wire. I've never seen 2 yellow wires for power. Anyways, here is what it says:

Yellow Wire (Memory back-up lead) Fused with 15a fuse

Yellow wire (Bus power lead)* Fused with 3a fuse

I'm guessing I would use the 15 amp wire and not use the other? Any help please. thanks.

I'm pretty sure when the clarion units come with two power wires (yellow) they want both hooked up to 12v constant

The small yellow wire will power up the C-Net bus in the unit.. if you are connecting a Changer, Sirius Satelite radio, you will need to connect the small yellow wire to 12+ constant. The heavier Yellow wire is the internal amp power and for memory.
