difference between becker and cdr wiring

Dear All,

Just before I go and junk my Becker Traffic Pro cos of the battery discharge problem I have been having, I thought I would have one more shot at solving the problem.

As the drain on my battery is huge when I have the Traffic Pro connected to the cars wiring harness but it is normal when I connect a standard Porsche CDR I wondered if it has anything to do with the alarm. I remember reading through a thread that mentioned the alarm wire had to be cut and taped up when fitting an aftermarket item. Given that the Becker (and the Blaupunkt I tried) both exhibited similar drains I am wondering whether it has something to do with the headunit alarm, can anyone tell me what colour the wire from the harness is or send me a complete wiring description from the manual for a CDR22 or just tell me what pin the wire connects to.

The fact that I had to splice the C8 wire into the switch live on the Becker tells me that there are some differences between the units wiring.

As always any help is gratefully appreciated

Nik
