Default Radio Problem

Good Day,

I buyed a used Bose concert cd player.
I installed everything and it's fine but 2 things:
1 - Radio don't turn off as i turn off the car like my old radio was doing. Anything i can do to fix that?

2 - it's less important but it dosen't display like my old radio in the dash

thanks for helping me

It sounds suspiciously like a wiring issue. Does the radio have a CD slot in the front?

Default If your installation is as good as your grammar, there shouldn't be a problem...>>>

lol, just kidding, the first thing you should check is whether it retains memory or not...e.g. clock, bass, treble, etc...if it doesn't then you likely have the constant and switched power backwards. If it does, then you may have the constant power jumped to the wrong location somewhere in the car. Check for +12 at the switched pin, if it doesn't have +12 there, you've got a bad radio. Hope this helps.

It's really strange because it is the same connector in the back. I had a Concert I and i buyed a Concert I with CD player. All the back is the same
