need the pin outs added. I have 4 sets of plugs, 84 and newer for radios and they all have different color wires, and all 4 sets don't match the colors in the 85 Shelby Charger harness... Makes it a pain.
some factory wires do but i have only seen a few on these cars and if you are installing a aftermarket deck the install harness will have wire labels on them
i have installed probably over 1000 radios in every type of vehicle imaginable, from an Aries to a Peterbuilt and everything inbetween and i have never seen factory wires behind the radio labeled. the only thing i have seen that came close was a military spec Humvee and the wires were labeled- with numbers. i dont know why military passenger and transport vehicles are like that- all wires are black and labeled with number tags. doesnt make any sense considering if you are color blind you can not enlist...
just like you, i have also installed in 1000's of vehicles low to high end cars as i was a MECP master tech, only certain vehicles have the labels as its kindof a rarity LOL
oh cool, always nice to see another MECP cert. tech around. i first certified in 1997, went silver not long after and kept that until i quit the industry in 2011. never bothered with the master cert because no employer was willing to give me anything extra pay wise nor would they reimburse me for the cost of the test.

i was certified in 2002 and you said a lot here as to why i am not in this buisness anymore, i was getting the same wages as the kids that were getting hired off the streets that were new to the industry, after i have spent hundreds on certification tests throughout the years, i just let it expire
yes you need some way of triggering the amp to turn on, if you have the factory radio you can tap into the switched 12v circuit, in which you will need a line output converter to connect the RCA's to the amp, but if you have a aftermarket deck the remote turn on wire will be blue in the install harness
those power and ground wires are just there to supply it with juice
I'm a little confused. In my '87 Daytona, I have FOUR wires leading down to where my speakers should be. For instance, right front has the Red/Blue wire and the Violet one, but also two more black wires on the connector. What are these extra black wires for?
Does anyone have the wiring diagrams for 1987 Chrysler radios?? The radios that use a DIN....I want to know what each of the 8 prongs on the back of the radio are for..ie...power, speakers, etc...thanks
I am sort of at a loss. I've got an 88 daytona shelby and I am following the wire color coding in the OP but am stuck on gray connect number 6 wire. For the left front neg it shows I need a Brown-red wire... I have no brown red on my harness. I do have about 3 different shades of green, green-yellow, and green-darksomething.
Basically I have that goop that leaked out from under the dash and ruined the after market radio someone installed, so I'm trying to revert back to factory. However, when they installed the Jensen aftermarket radio they cut just about every wire as short as they could.. idiots.
Taking a battery to all 14 wires one at a time has proven fruitless after an hour and my back is killing me.
Hello -
Still tinkering with my electronic Navigator in an 89 LeBaron convertible premium. Ended up cycling through a few units for different reasons - got one that worked (replaced buttons) only to have the VFD apparently die, for instance.
Before I put another one in, I am doing some...
87 2.2 turbo 1 , can you tell me the primary resistance needed for our machines? I have misplaced and cannot find it. Looking at a coil .355 ohms, 300 ma max primary current, 6.9 millihenrys inductance. Thanks for your time.
Hey everyone...after a 5 year hiatus and while my Evo is at the paint shop and my E30 is awaiting parts...I pulled the GLH out of the corner and decided to give it some love. But...its been 5 years so I'm learning it all over again. I'm really hoping to get the harness installed and a new fuel...
Need some insight please.
Held on to the button in the down position too long while lowering the top. Heard nothing except now the top won't function and the windows will not go up and down. Checked 30 AMP breaker, it's good. Now I'm not sure where to start. All window motors are good as...
I thought I might share this for anyone interested. It's a simple DIY diagnostic tool for verifying if your coolant gauge works correctly. It's simply 2 wires with a 500 ohm resistor Potentiometer in the middle, encased in a novelty plastic shotgun shell (Just because I had it laying around...
