Question
I have a 99 Honda Accord coupe, it had a cd player (1
Disk)and a separate cassette player all OEM it also has steering wheel volume control etc. and has the
anti-theft device. I recently bought a 6 disk changer OEM that is xm satellite
ready and I have the radio code, it is hooked up and I entered the code
and it plays but it starts switching stations and songs after a minute
...the cassette is still hooked up and that harness doesn't fit the
other opening on the new unit. Do I need another harness for it to work
properly ? The new radio came out of a Honda CRV. Also the steering wheel controls don't work either since this has been put in .


Answer
the other opening on the head unit is for the external cd changer or xm tuner  
why you want to plug the tape back in to this radio ?
is the steering wheel controls plug back in to this radio
or is part of the main harness ?
what year Honda CRV ?
