Default 01 S4 double din install with metra bose harness troubles!!!

I have tried everything hooking up this receiver. I cant get the memory wire to a constant power supply so every time i shut off the car it resets and i lose all my settings. Anyone have a fix for this??

Run a tap off something that is always on at the fuse box?

The memory wire shouldn't be a very big draw on the electrical system.

The memory wire not only retains memory, it is the primary power source for the HUs internal amplifier & components.

There is a constant power (memory) in the oem harness at the radio.
There should be a somewhat large gauge red/blue (red with a blue stripe) wire in one of the black oem wiring harness, that is the memory wire you want to use.
