Question:

Stereo Harness wires?

Hello, I am fixing up alot of my old cars electrical systems. So far I got everything taken apart just fine. I have a 1987 Chevy Celebrity with its stock stereo. I am trying to prepare it to get a new system in there. I am however not too knowlegable when it comes to the harness' that connect the stereo system all together. The connections it has are the regular power connection. in the corner 3 small connectors one on top of the other, and on the other side of it another small connector by itself. Is there any guides or anything I use to figure out how to convert thiss orr?thanks, any help will be greatly appreciated.

Answer:

The small white connector has the constant power wire (orange) and an illumination wire (dark brown). The black connector has the key-switched power (yellow), ground wire (black), and another illumination wire (gray). It may also have a power antenna wire (pink). The white 4-pin connector has the front speaker wires. Left positive (tan), left negative (gray), right positive (light green) and right negative (dark green). The blue connector has the rear speaker wires. Left positive (brown), left negative (yellow), right positive (dark blue) and right negative (light blue). The thick black wire is an AM/FM antenna plug. You can purchase a wire harness adapter that fits all the power/speaker plugs. The Metra part number is 70-1677.
