Thank you. You helped me, especially the part of the blue/red “turn on” wire going to BOTH blue/white wires of the sub woofer. The directions that come with the AXFD-5V are not clear on this point. Thank you so much.

When he says hook blue to blue and white when he's at the small gray amp connector don't look for solid blue. Blue and white , blue and white. The blue and red hook up. He should have said no I'm wrong.

What I meant by that was my head unit has two banks of left and right (white and red). The first one I plugged into had sound but it was really weak. The second one had perfect sound. Not too sure what the difference was but I just know in this particular head unit it made a difference

It looks like you have 3 connections on the back of your original radio, just like mine on my 2004 Grand Marquis. The largest is the main radio connection. One of the others is to the sub that you did a good job explaining how to connect. What is the 3rd connector on the back of the origilan radio for and does it need to be connected? Thanks,

Would be even more helpful if you said what the wires did instead of just their colors. Manufactures are not doing a good job of sticking to color codes.

How did you end up securing the after market head unit since I’m assuming it didn’t have the spring clips like the stock head unit. Did you just drill into the plastic?

Im so glad that i found your video! I just ordered new aftermarket radio to replace my shaker 500. On the shaker system i have amp connection, speaker connection (the big harness) and there is the third one that i dont know what is it for. The harness from crutchfield comes with just 2(amp and speakers). What should i do with the third one from my car? I also have a question about your conversion from 12v to 5v. Could i use a 1.5k ohm resistor that would go between two blue/white wires from amp to blue/white wire from aftermarket radio harness instead of voltage regulator? Hope you are all good and that you will see my comment! Thanks!

Well I thought I had it figured out, exactly like you showed, but the small wire harness that goes to factory amp/sub doesn't fit. Then I've seen some people say they didn't even need that extra small harness. My problem is my front speakers aren't working.

Instead of buying the step down converter you can just wire in a 1.5k resistor between the blue/white amp turn on wires on the RCA harness and the blue wire from main harness. Just did this yesterday when installing new radio in a Town Car, works perfectly.
@AB-cy4wl6 жыл бұрын
hey man, do you think this will do? www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0185FIJY0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 You only need 1 resistor to connect those 3 wires together? or 2 resistors 1 for each wire blue/white wire to connect them to the radio's blue/white wire? Thanks for any help!
@motox206 жыл бұрын
A B- Yeah that resistor will work. Just need one, what you do is twist the ends of the two blue wires from the harness with the RCA's together and solder the resistor to them and solder the other end to the blue amp turn on wire on the radio harness. Basically you treat the two blue wires on the RCA harness as one wire and treat the resistor like an in-line fuse(in terms of where to put it I mean). Also, unrelated but if you happen to have a Pioneer head unit with dvd functionality, even on the newer models you can still just ground the parking brake wire. But since newer models require you to engage the parking brake twice(the bypass switch you can buy uses a pulse for that reason), you can wire the parking brake wire to ground and add a toggle switch, then after the radio turns on(radio requires signal after radio turns on now) just toggle the ground twice and voila.

I just did a double din install today on my 07 escape but I didn’t have a leftover blue and white wire. Would I have to wire it with the other blue and white ones on the adapter and stereo harness?
