Default wiring a roadgear radio

ok I got a problem I am trying to install jensen roadgear cd radio in my truck I know the wiring for the power on the radio is red/acc and memory and yellow is constant power and black is ground . [/align]now on the wiring power there is this [/align][/align]The Grey plug is basically your power source. (Pink) and or (red and white) are your power sources, one is ignition triggered and one is a constant to keep the clock set. (Orange) illuminates the lights. (Black and Yellow) dimms the lights. (Similar to one or the rear speaker wires, so be careful.) [/align]now when i hook it with hooking the orange up I get nothing but when i hook the orange wire , i got to turn on my lights . can someone please tell me how to avoid this and how to wire it correctly [/align][/align]thank you [/align]

don't use the orange, tape up the end and ignore it, that'll keep your lights from coming on, and the radio will still work, I only know cus I did the exact same thing on my Saturn years ago and scared myself, I thought I f-ed my car up
