i'm pretty sure that yellow wire just goes to something that turns on when you turn the key on. so when you turn the key on, that wire gets power and then goes to that little circuit board and tells the light to turn off. but when the key is off, that yellow wire no longer has power, so the red wire then connected to the constant power will allow the light to turn on. get it?
Dude I gave you the thing yesterday for your car.
Black wire = Ground it, somehow contact it with the body metal.
Yellow wire = Ignition [black/yellow, Yellow, or Blue/White] (apparently CRX has 3, my car only had 1.)
Red = 12+ power [white/black]
Take your center console out and look at the mess of wires behind your CD Player. It should have the stereo harness wires twisted together to an adapter harness, they are just twisted together and held with caps. Just undo the caps and twist in the LEDs wires to where they should go. Most of the stereo stuff actually says what it does right on the wire. Shouldn't be hard.

**** it, i wanna use wires, i get the point of all that, why don't u all answer my ****ing question, black= ground, i have that one done, what fuse is a constant 12V!? and is there a ignition fuse?
Take off the stupid fuse panel cover and look at the description of all the fuses. Then you can choose what you want to use. I can't believe your getting pissed when your right there with your car. Get a 12v tester or a voltmeter or something.
oh i thought we were talking about led washer nozzles!! god knows isee 40 pairs of those a day.
yeah i had a cool red blinking light in my interior for my fake security system. didnt stop the theives. so i just took out my light and my stero system. and enjoy the sound of vtec.
