i got a new cd/dvd player combo

also dose anyone have a good place to wire up / mount a uhf radio a small compact one???

The memory wire needs direct power from the battery. IIRC it should be the orange one on the CD. If this is not connected then audio setting, time etc will not remain saved.
Below is the wiring colour code for a Nissan. Not the Maxima but should be the same. So in this case the memory wire from the player should be attached to the yellow.

You will also have to correctly wire the speakers for polarity.

12V Ignition / Acc. . . . . . . . . . Red
12V Batt / Memory. . . . . . . . . Yellow
Ground. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Black*
Power Antenna. . . . . . . . . . . . Blue
Amp Turn-On . . . . . . . . . . . . . Blue / White
Amp Ground. . . . . . . . . . . . . . Black / White
Illumination . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Orange
Dimmer . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Orange / White
Right Front (+) . . . . . . . . . . . . Gray
Right Front (-). . . . . . . . . . . . . Gray/ Black
Left Front (+) . . . . . . . . . . . . . White
Left Front (-). . . . . . . . . . . . . . White / Black
Right Rear (+) . . . . . . . . . . . . Violet
Right Rear (-) . . . . . . . . . . . . . Violet / Black
Left Rear (+) . . . . . . . . . . . . . Green
Left Rear (-) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Green / Black

Proceed with caution LOL

The above information is from the Metra dash kit manual

Err...sorry :-o that is the standard wiring code for the player. You will have to attach the yellow wire (memory) to a wire in the car's dash harness with a constant current supply. Constant in the sense - even with the ignition key out. This will have to be located. If you don't have a multi meter a simple test lamp with a 12v bulb will suffice

Cheers..

But if your Maxima had Bose factory, that is a whole different ballgame.
