How to Install Aftermarket Stereo / Radio | Chevy Impala | 2006 - 2013 (NOT FOR "BOSE" WITH AMP)

[@schteep1680]

Man i was absolutely struggling with the ignition wire cause a lot of other vehicles use the accesory power wire for that. Thanks man

[@cddog1995]

Wow thank you. I had just gotten my radio installed and for a while I wasn't sure where to get switched power from. You are a genius for using that power window fuse. I was thinking of going to the engine bay. Thank you! I just need to get the adapter kit to mount the radio and screw it in... Walmart was sold out.

[@STREETRACEN4U]

THANKYOU times a million i spent at least an hour trying to get the radio to come on with the key , every forum had me try pink wires, brown wires, green wires im just hacking up my factory harness trying to make it go Thankyou it works good now

There is no video better then this to describe exactly what to do!!👍👍...i hooked the remote wire for the aftermarket subs amp to the same wire as the fuse wire in this video because the radio wire was constant but now the radio doesn't always shut off when it supposed to after you open the door...any suggestions??

I think so is easy with You explication, always that go step by step your instruction

[@DblTap317]

Thanks for this video! I bought the exact kit shown in video, It made it super easy! Any advice I'd give someone is buy a Sony or name brand stereo. I bought a Chinese off brand and it had some of the wire colors/ purpose mislabeled that caused confusion and neither of the plastic brackets fit my stereo and the screw holes didn't line up. I had to snip, cut, sand, drill and paint them and reinforce the cheap plastic wings with metal but it was solid and custom fit in the end. Looks great and works perfectly!

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

Glad it helped. Thanks for sharing your experience!

[@jonathanhagberg6033]

Thank you for this excellent video! I was able to wire and install my radio step by step along with this. A quick question. My radio stays on when I turn off the ignition, and only shuts off if the passenger door opens (not the driver door). I suspect this is from the 12V wiring to the fuse box. Can this be fixed to turn off from the driver door?

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

Glad it helped! The passenger door is interesting. Mine continues to supply power for a short period of time when the ignition is turned off, but will immediately cut the power when the driver door is opened. I will double check all of the doors and report back. It will probably be on Monday. Currently out of town for the week.

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

I just checked all of the doors. After shutting off the ignition, the radio stays on for a while. However, opening any door immediately cuts power to the radio. I tested each door individually and they all turned off the radio.

Im confused. Ive checked some of the comments and you say that if the impala has the bose amp between the 2 6x9s then you cant use this kit. And some comments you can. Which is it. I have the 2014 ltz limited. And i see the amp in the trunk. And i have already ordered the kit. Will it work on my model?

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

It’s been a while, but I believe the amp requires a power source from the stereo, which this simple harness doesn’t provide. A more expensive harness kit is required.

@@B-B12v its not a special harness. It's about a certain wire that turns the amp on. I believe it's the remote wire. It's one of them blue wires on the harness. It needs to be hooked up to the red wire to turn on when the radio turns on.

[@Pack044]

What other fuses could you use besides a window fuse. Taking my impala head unit to sierra head unit (same harness) but it has crank windows

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

You’ll need something that only has power when the key is on.

[@BenDavis-xj2tm]

I've heard that splicing the wires like this means that the warning chimes (e.g. for when the door is open) no longer function. There are some much more expensive harness adaptors on the market that claim to retain this function. Is this true? These more expensive adaptors also claim to retain the retained accessory power (so the radio can function for a short time after switching the ignition off) and the steering wheel controls. Do I need the more expensive adaptor for all these things or do they still work with this method? Thanks!!

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

I will do some testing and let you know. I know for sure that as normal, the radio stays on for a while after shutting the vehicle off, but it shuts off immediately if you open the drivers door. This functionality is the result of tapping into the power windows. I’m not sure about the warning chimes. I guess I have not paid that much attention. I will let you know.

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

I can verify that as normal, the radio will stay on for a while when turning the key off. Or it will shut off immediately when you open the drivers door. However, it does not appear to do any warning chimes. I opened the drivers door with the key in the ignition, and there was no chime. I’m not sure what made a chime or not chime with the old original stereo. I guess I never noticed. I do not have any steering wheel controls (other than cruise control) so I could not test that. But the stereo instructions says the stereo compatible with steering wheel controls. Not sure about the adapter harness. I hope that helps!

[@deadchannel991]

@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial Yes, on these vehicles you will lose chime when you install the radio with one of these harness adapters. There are more expensive ones that do retain chime, the cheaper of which can add humming or feedback to the audio of the car. another note, some of these vehicles have stock amplifiers, and it will have a different harness adapter as well. the vehicles without the stock amp will work with this harness but you may have to modify the stock harness on the vehicles with an amp.

When connecting into the power window fuse does that effect anything with the windows.

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

As long as you connect it to the hot terminal as shown, no. It will get 12 volts directly from the battery, and the radio has its own fuse on the back.

[@detailguy8892]

Hey buddy do you have to run the swtch power to the fuse? Im onstalling an aftermarket in my daughters 07 impala , i used a harness and im not getting power. Should i run the red wire same as you ? Thanks in advance .

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

Yes, run the red wire to the window fuse. It needs to get power only when the key is on. There is not at wire in the factory harness with switched power. It only has constant power (yellow wire). The factory stereo has an internal way to use constant power only. Aftermarket stereo requires constant power (to save the time and preset radio stations) and it also needs separate switched power to turn the unit on when the key is on.

[@jacobwaller9876]

So if we get an aftermarket radio we don't need to get the password? Cuz I was reading that if you get a replacement radio you'll need a password for it or something? But not an aftermarket radio? My radio just died in my 06 Impala. 😢

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

I didn’t have to do anything with a password. I just plugged it in and it was good to go.

[@MidnightLadyCrow]

Prob a silly question but do I need to disconnect my negative still even if I need to check for live wire? My vehicle doesn't have original connecters so I have to re wire everything from the aftermarket including putting a 12v ignition wire like in the vid. Btw I have a 2010 chevy cobalt.

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

If you are checking for live wires, the battery will need to be connected for that. But it’s a good idea to disconnect the battery since you are cutting the factory harness. You may want to consider reconnecting a factory plug to the vehicle harness, then get the plug-in adapter to jump from the factory plug to the new stereo. Otherwise, if you needed to connect a different stereo in the future, the factory harness may get too short if you have to keep cutting and re-splicing it.

[@MidnightLadyCrow]

Thank you so much for your help and advice! Sounds like a good idea. Appreciate you! ​@HowtoandReviewsOfficial

[@nicoleransom6879]

Is there anywhere else u can connect the red wire to? Tried what u said to do and it melted the cord. I didnt plug in everything in the same order as you did. Did I need to do it in that order?

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

You need a power source that provides 12 V when the key is turned on, and 0 V when the key is turned off. You could use a probe and look around for other sources. I am not currently aware of any others. If the red wire melted, then your radio has a problem because it is drawing way too many amps. Also, the radio should have a little fuse on the back, preventing it from drawing too many apps. Something strange is going on.

Would you keep the steering wheel control with everything included in the kit? Or is it more complicated than that

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

I do not have steering wheel controls, so I cannot verify first-hand, but I have read that this kit will NOT keep steering wheel controls. The instructions for the specific Sony stereo that I used say that the stereo itself does retain steering wheel controls. So, you may need a harness and a stereo designed to retain controls. Unfortunately, I do not know what harness to recommend for that. I think maybe this kit is designed to retain all functionality, but I do not know for sure. I recommend calling the manufacturer to verify this is correct. amzn.to/42zJ5c8 www.crutchfield.com/p_120GMOS04/Metra-GMOS-04-Wiring-Interface.html?cnxclid=16796236390059893953210090301008005

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

Double check the wire splices for good connections.

[@crazywolfcc1310]

Are you sacrificing the ability to use your power windows for the power cable or am missing something?

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

No. The power windows are not affected at all. Just using the same power source. And by using the input leg of the fuse, the windows are still fused correctly (the stereo doesn’t go through the window fuse). The stereo should have its own fuse on the back.

[@ChrisHardin-m7o]

First off, great video and very detailed. However, I would highly advise against connecting the switched power red wire to either the line or load side of the power window breaker. I get the radio has circuit protection but circuit breakers are also intended to protect the wire as well. That red wire will not handle 25+ amps of power in the event of a short. If a short occurs, the insulation of that red wire will melt and could cause a fire. This red wire should be placed on an appropriately sized breaker and make sure it is on the load side Of the breaker (i.e. output side of the breaker).

i hooked mine up the same exact way and it wont even turn on? what could be wrong? the manual says the red is the accessory and the yellow is the constant

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

That is correct. Yellow is constant and red is accessory. To turn on, you have to supply power to the red accessory wire on the radio harness. (end it also needs to be grounded with the black wire).

[@francisco3254]

How does the OEM radio get power then?

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

There are typically two power wires. 1) yellow constant power. This always supplies power to keep the clock accurate and preset radio stations saved. 2) red accessory power. This only provides power when the key is on and is what powers the radio for operation. The factory harness only has the yellow constant power. It does not have the red accessory power wire, which is what the aftermarket radio needs, which is why we have to wire it in from a different source. (You can’t use the yellow wire because the radio will always be on, even when the car is off). The stock radio received data when the key was on and internally programmed to use the constant power when the key is on. This is not typical. Most radios have a yellow and red wire, and aftermarket radios need a yellow and red wire.

You must have the power cable connected to a fuse that always has power Get a current tester and see which fuse turns on with the key off or which one doesn't, if it doesn't turn on with the key off, try the key in accessories if it turns on ready, connect it.

I connected it to that fuse, and it stays on without the key being in the ignition

Did this and it started blowing out my fan fuse car started overheating I urge anybody watching this don’t listen to this dud the red wire does NOT go in the window fuse at all whatsoever

[@HowtoandReviewsOfficial]

Sorry to hear that. Thanks for sharing. The fan is on a separate fuse, unrelated to the power window fuse, so I’m not sure what is going on in your vehicle. You may have a bad fan motor drawing too many amps or a bare wire grounding out and drawing too many amps. Something on the fan circuit is drawing excessive amps and blowing the fan circuit fuse.
