What are you trying to do? Do they have tweeters on your dash?

Did you connect both the red and yellow wires of the radio to the yellow wire of the aftermarket harness?
There should be a red wire with a white stripe in the trucks wiring that is switched power. If it is not, you have a blown fuse.

if the fuse is blown will that keep power to the red wire? I hooked the yellow wires to the pink ones from the truck the red to the red

Disconnect the red wire of the radio and check the voltage on the car end without the radio connected.

Does your cigarette lighter go off with the key?

yes the power port turns off with key but if you tag the red wire to ground with volt meter it still shows 9 volts

If either of the accessory wires in the ignition harness shows 9 volts with the key off, I'd replace the ignition switch:
