I have been trying to wire up a new stereo for my 2005 express, and I have already cut the factory harness (oops). The problem I have is that I cannot find out where the accessory wire is, and consequently the new unit will not shut off with the car because it's only wired to the 12v constant. I gave tried to use a multimeter to find the accesory wire by having the key in the on position and seeing which wire reads 12v, but the only wire I get a reading for is the 12v constant wire. Anybody know which wire is the accessory wire? Or whether there even is one?

Should be orange. Slighty thinner than the other two oranges that go to speakers. I have no idea why chevy felt the need to use orange so many times. Its confusing.  I had the same problem make sure you check your fuse for it.  That was my issue.
