Okay no worries this is what I connected as shown on a YouTube video it's called vt/vx headunit wiring colours.
To power the unit
Constant orange/Black to yellow
Accessories yellow to red
Ground black/white to black
Then it was just the speakers

just pulled up a wiring diagram
looks like the acc circuit from your ignition barrel switch has failed
this is the plastic switch attached to the barrel, not the metal key part

So do you reckon replace the ignition switch?
Everything besides radio ciggy lighter and wipers work... and that night-time dash lights..
Car locks window go up and down etc headlights taillights...
Just tested wiper again and works on ignition but once started doesn't work

i would chuck a multimeter on the brown wire at ignition switch
should have 12v on accessory and ignition, but not on crank or lock
