Sirius install question
I have the Panasonic unit. It has the red wire and a yellow wire for power. Do I have to use both just like a stereo? Reason being I don't want to run a wire all through the car. I have an amp in the same place the Sirius box is. I tried running the red wire and gnd wire to the amp but the Sirius doesn't power on. I'm thinking it's because the yellow wire isn't connected but I thought maybe somebody would say that something else is the problem and I don't have to connect that wire. I just think it's lame that you have to run a little wire along all my amp wires to power the thing up.

Thanks! Are the button lights of the unit suppose to be on all the time? I turned the ignition off and the button lights are still on.

I just tapped the red wire to the remote on my amp, the yellow to the battery term on the amp, and the black to the chassis.
