Ok thanks for that Joee! Anyone know if I have the wiring correct? Do my notes on the images look right? Thanks again!

Im not sure I'd be comfortable doing that. However would wiring the memory wire into both the memory and ignition not have the same results? I might try that if I continue to have the same problem with the new stereo. I'm still not convince I have the wiring correct though.

Ok I have ordered a new stereo and that should arrive later in the week, in the mean time here is the sensor on my speedo: Can anyone help with the wiring? I almost certainly have this wrong, but this is what I have at the moment and what I think each wire is. Here's the ISO Connector going...

Wow thanks Vex, I was starting to question if I was imagining the stereo working when I did shone the torch into it! So I'm guessing that if only one person knew this existed, nobody is going to know how it is wired up and how it could affect a stereo. What a weird problem... I'm wondering if...

I'm having an absolute mental block here. Ill take some photos tomorrow. What I do know is that the handles are flush with the door and its an analog clock. This guy posted a photo of his speedometer...

What are you saying? Either that isn't a light sensor on my dashboard or I don't have an 8L? I'm pretty sure it is 8L though. It's a 99 model so it's a facelift I think, does that change anything? Also it's an Italian car imported into Spain, could it be different spec to the UK?

I think you might actually be a genius... Here's what happened: I put the other stereo headunit in and it worked fine(as expected) then I went back out to test it when it was dark, it still worked perfectly several times with lights on and off, indicators on and off, etc. I switched back to my...

I have either Philips or osram bulbs in at the moment but I don't think they are the problem. Before it stopped working at night all together it was sounding as if it were playing the radio and getting interference and crackling. At that stage if I pressed the button to put the windows up or...

That's brilliant. Nice find! @daz: good point. I've borrowed an old unit off a friend. Ill put that in and see how that does this evening. To be honest it's probably the last thing to try. I can't see why the unit would turn off in the dark. And it definitely does seem to be connected to the...

Thanks daz. I've tried it in the daytime with headlights on, heating on, etc. and I've tried it at night with nothing on. When I went into the underground car park I didn't change anything. No headlights on, nothing, and the radio still switched off. That's why I was thinking of it possibly...

Haha. Is there a less drastic solution I can try first?

Hi guys, I'm new here and I'm sorry if this is in the wrong forum. My problem is a strange one, my stereo(cheap aftermarket) used to work fine, but the memory didn't work. Then after a year or so it started to not work very well at night(crackling as if listening to the radio and the signal...
