The Constant is a 12volt current that never shuts off. This allows the head unit to maintain its memory. A switched is connected to the ignition which turns the head unit on and off .  https://www.the12volt.com/installbay/detail.asp?info=alarm&year=1994&make=Toyota&model=Corolla&ID=18978&type=Stereo

Forgot to mention on your new head unit it might not have an illumination wire. In this case you do not have to connect the illumination wire in your factory harness to anything
