tbh just go grab a $20 harness and some butt connectors(electrical tape only is a bad idea) and completely restart.

best buy/walmart should have one for your car.

a lot easier than losing 5k fg lol.


the harness is brand new and i have a ton of but connecters o.o


the harness came with colors wires already in it? just i take them out and just throw the other wires in?

now i'm just getting confused.

was the no to it coming with a wiring diagram or no you didn't buy a new harness?

i guess i'd like to clarify a few other points as well

when i say wiring harness i don't mean the one that directly plugs into the back of the head unit

the wiring harness i'm referring to hooked into the cars factory harness and then wires to the head units wiring.

since i don't see it in the pictures...where is the harness that attaches directly to the car?

This plugs into the factory harness.

Then you just match the colors coming from the wiring adapter with the harness coming out of the back of the new radio.

You will have to run your own ignition cause the car doesn't look like it has one. So run a wire from the RED wire coming out of the back of the radio to the windshield wiper fuse in your car.

unless you care about fade/balance you can just wire the speakers up whichever way you want.

each set of solid+stripe color is a set of speakers.

ex: solid purple+purple with black stripe is a positive and negative for one of the 4 speakers.

the black will be the ground

now the red and yellow you can do with trial and error. one is a switch 12 volt and one is a constant 12 volt. the constant is the memory wire and the switch is for turning the head unit on/off.

so if you get these backwards the head unit will stay on constantly..if you get it correctly it will turn on when the car gets turned on and turned off when the car is turned off.


once you get it working in general you can use the balance and fade to wire the speakers in the correct way. ex: fade to rear left and if the front right is what stays on then switch the wires around.
