You are telling me to wrap the wire in electrical tape so it doesnt ground.........wouldnt that be leaving an open circuit? Just trying to learn
Thanks

If i remember correctly you are correct the factory radio when installed presses against the bracket completing the alarm circuit. But it doesn't function properly with an aftermarket radio. If you go to cai website it explains why. But if you disconnect it without wrapping it with it flopping around it causes alarm issues.
