so I installed the Alpine cda 9883 and for some reason, it won't hold memory after I turn my car off.

I connected the red/black (supposidly the constant) to the red (memory on radio), yellow (12v on radio) to the blue (12v on car), and black to ground.

What am I doing wrong?

Yeah, I was about to say that the yellow is usually the 12v constant for keeping memory butcha got it covered.
