Technical Fitting new CD Player in Ulysse - Power??

[XB23]

Hey guys,

Ive just fitted a CD player into my ulysse as my factory one had totally packed up. The player works great and the wiring is all correct (i think).

I had the red wire as the memory wire and yellow as power wire. It seems to hold the memory after the car has been off all night. However whats strange is the player dosent go off until after about 1-2mins after the ignition has been turned off? then whats strange is the players comes on as soon as one of the doors is opened?

is that what should happen?

Had you the sat nave etc? I presume you have lost all the info on the small screen? I am going throught the same problem at the moment. If you had the RT3 unit I have found a company to repair them and also a guy in London who knows how to code etc. I want to keep the info screen so have endured lots of pain to get it right again.
T:bang:

nah havnt had sat nav before, its just the old player stopped working i had a clarion cd player in there, ive lost the cd/radio off the screen but it dosent really bother me as the new player shows the info anyway on its own screen.

its just weird how it takes a min to turn off after the ignition has been off?

sounds to me like you might have an issue with the wiring there the only thing i can think off top of my head is something to do with the illumination power.
for example the courtisy light stays on when you take the key out / open door etc. I have the older ulysse so not sure..

I have the exact same issue, tbh I didn't realise it was an issue, just thought it was a quirk of the car. And no my car has never had Sat Nav and mine too has had a stereo replacement. Now that it's been raised as an issue I wonder is there a fix?
