I transplanted a pioneer head unit from my old mustang to my 2000 Taurus. I bought the dash kit that came with the long cables you have to run to the trunk. I wired everything up the way I thought it worked and tried it out. When I turned the key to accessory nothing happened with the radio. When i turned the car on nothing happened with the radio. I also found that my power locks, dome light, and FOB no longer work. I then found that if I connected the blue/white amp wire to the red power wire everything worked kind of. The radio turns on and functions properly but the power locks and the FOB only work when the key is in the accessory position or the car is on. Does anyone have an idea where I went wrong maybe a specific fuse I should check that I'm not seeing?
