This wire need to have constant power. There should be a wire in the factory radio harness that will have +12V at all times (unless the fuse is blown). If there is not a wire that has this, check the fuses, especially under the hood...it will most likely be labeled as "back-up". This is most likely the problem...does your interior light work?

P.S. Use a digital multi meter to test for power.
