2 years ago, i bought a pioneer deh-p6800mp deck with a kicker amp and 2-10" kickers, and 4 pioneer door speakers for my 2007 dodge ram mega cab. i bought everything from circuit city, including all wiring harnesses. randomly like 4 weeks ago, my subs would play but not any of the 4 pioneer door speakers that were attached to the deck. so i popped the stock radio in and everything was fine, so i thought the deck went bad for some reason, went out got a new kenwood deck cut the old wiring harness off,hooked it up, same thing. so i wound up rewiring all the door speakers myself and it works. my problem is this: when i bought the deck the guy from circuit city told me they had a problem with rams wiring and to hook 1 of the power wires up some sort of way, so i did and it all worked great for 2 years. now ever since i cut the old wiring harness off and reinstalled the pioneer, i can only hook the 2 constants and the 2 power wires altogether for the deck to work, but then i gotta shut it off all the time and that's a pain in the butt. so does anybody have any recommendations on how the dodge wiring is as far as power and constant? i would appreciate any feedback!

2007 RAM's use CANBUS to turn on so you actually need a module to output a switched turn on, otherwise you will have to use another switched ignition source from the ignition switch or fuse panel. Did the CC guys not use a module ??

no i hooked it all up myself, but the guy that sold me the deck happened to tell me what wires to cross or whatever cause he said they had several problems on rams in the install bay, i just cant remember what the hell it was.
