just removed my stereo ready to install new sony HU at the weekend

 

sussed out the wires are these right:

 

found speaker wires ok

 

Yellow - permanent live

Blue - live on ignition switch

Green/red - not sure??

Red/black feed elec aerial

 

Andy

the green/red wire might be the feed to the rear amp.

 

Vijay

is there any way of checking this

 

Andy

when you say green/red, is it green with a red stripe or vice versa?

 

have a look here -

....And this may help, which I picked it up off of a post on one of the other BBs (Ben's Aus forum) and covers an import:-

 

Audio Wiring colour codes made easy!

rear left negative - black and white

front right negative - black and purple

 

front left positive - green

front left negative - black and yellow

 

Antenna - black and red (test these out because there are 2 black/red wires)

the wire in question is green with red stripe

double post :rolleyes:

I presume someone's cut the wires to install a stereo already, otherwise you'd just be using an ISO adapter? If not, this may help...

 

I took out my old stereo last weekend and this is part of the sticker that was on the stereo, showing the layout of the wiring in the connectors. No colours though. :(
