My head unit isn't getting any power on the permanent live so it's not saving memory or coming on with the key

the switched live is getting power but not the permanent the fuses are all ok and it turns on if I press the source button

on my gsi the lives on the alpine head unit were the wrong way round for the iso conector

Yeah i've tried swapping the blue n yellow round I tested it with my multi meter and there's no voltage through it

I have the yellow n read connected together just now so It works till I can figure it out just annoying having to change the settings everytime I turn it on

The headunit worked fine untilli changed my dash to a mk2 then this happened even though I didn't touch any of that wiring
