    Just check the wiring...they have the switch power wire hooked to the wrong power source.

    Considering your posts here, I would say take it someplace and let them do it for you so you dont screw anything up.

    Moreover I would be willing to be that the yellow wire (Constant Power) coming off of the radio is connected to the vehicles negative illumination wire. I would suggest that you take it to a shop and have the vehicle wired up correctly.
