Look for little inline fuses on the wires.

Not that I've even seen on factory.

Only GM vehicles have that, Fords dont. I'll update with wire colors, but I have no way to check power at the moment...my ammeter doesnt work.

Everyone should own a five dollar test light.


Hell my new one cost 400 I think. And I still use the 5 dollar one sometimes

Just throwing out suggestions. I think I've seen one car with factory but I could be wrong. I haven't installed a head unit in almost 10 years.

On my way to walmart to get one now. I think I may need to just tap into another hot wire.

Just some pictures of my deck install today at lunch.


Only took about 45 min to complete the install including running Sirius and mic for phone...

They made great 6x9s back in the day.

In 89 I had a 69 Nova with a Craig and 2 Jensens in the rear deck.

Cranking out the Pour Some Sugar on me!

Yes, I had a mullet.

I figured it out, the ignition wire on the aftermarket wiring harness goes to nothing. So If I hook it up to the constant power I'll just have to remember to turn it off. Only problem is there is no power button on the head unit and the remote for it doesn't work for some reason. So I have to find a keyed hot wire, this is really becoming a pain in the ass.

Also the right rear speaker doesnt work for some unknown reason, it worked just fine with the factory head unit.

Your adapter is a piece of shit is the conclusion I'm at.

I've ran into that before.

Yes, yes it is. It was the culprit in the right rear speaker problem as well. Its all situated now.
