strange aftermarket stereo issue

[SCWDP911]

My 17 yo son recently saved up and purchased a decent daily driver 85.5 944. Someone had already replaced the radio head unit with a Yamaha aftermarket one but it is a cassette unit and he bought a new bluetooth unit. Went to install and the wire colors all matched up to the Yamaha harness as far as ground, power, and continuous power. Here is the kicker - the old unit powers up and works, the new units will not(we have tried 2 different brands now because I was convinced the first one he bought had to be faulty out of the box). I have reconfirmed all new wiring traces back to appropriate factory wiring, though really had no doubt since the Yamaha unit does power on with no issue. I even looked to see if the new units had some sort of "remove me before installation" piece. What the heck am I missing here. Again, both red (factory green/yellow) and the Yellow (factory red/white) have 12v to the black (factory big red I believe). Help

Anyone have 84 radio wiring diagram?

Found the issue - fatigue had set in the night before... Could have sworn we had 12vdc on both red and yellow wires (acc and constant). But my son went out a little while ago and saw the yellow only had about 5-7vdc on it. He decided to trace it back to behind the Yamaha step down transformer block (proud parent moment, haha) and found that there was 12vdc behind the step-down. He removed the step-down from the circuit and bam, new unit works perfectly. Guess the moral is don't work too late on your cars.

Nice catch. Sometimes you just have to walk away for awhile.
