I just installed my capacitor and I have never had one before. My buddy says his has a remote wire. Mine doesn't and the display is on all the time. Is it supposed to be and does that drain down the battery? I am such a moron when it comes to stereos.

I thought it was just the crappy battery I had before, so now I have an Optima.. but after leaving the car sit for 4 days.. the Optima was dead.. anyone think it was the cap that caused it? -------------------- ~Daniel~ No Longer Celica Owner.. moved on to a 03 WRX-EJ207
