If this is a Vauxhall, you need to swap the red and yellow wires over then it'll work properly.

no its not he is completely right, it will be running off a perminant live, hense why it stays on constantly, ideally connect one power lead to a perminant live and one power to the cig lighter instead of both to the perminant
ignore the changing red and yellow crap, thats just for holding memory of the headunit
