Default Help - ERST radio wiring

Just trying to put my cd player into my S1 and unit is getting power as it chucks cd back at you when you plug it in but is not powering up?

I only need an earth, permanent live nd ignition feed for (kenwood) head unit and i have from the car, earth (brown) permanent live (yellow) but couldnt find ignition feed so just using power feed to cigarette lighter but still no power - any ideas?
