Everything has been pretty self explanatory so far. I've connected yellow to yellow, red to red, black (ground) to the chassis. I've got the + and - of each speaker connected fine.However the one question I have is that on the pioneer connector there is a blue/white cable. In the pioneer diagram it says blue/white is for Connect to system control terminal of the poweramp or auto-antenna relay control terminal . However on the mitsubishi harness, there is no blue/white cable. There is only a blue wire that says for antenna power.These sound like two different things, so if they are not used, then how will the antenna get power?Also on the harness are two orange wires labeled dimmer and dash illumination. However, on the pioneer connector nothing is mentioned nor in the diagram, so I am guessing these are to be taped off and not used.Still confused about the antenna power though.help!
Go ahead and connect the blue wire to the blue/white. Some head units have both a blue and blue/white wire. A blue wire is the true power antenna wire; it's active only when the tuner function is selected on the head unit. A blue/white wire is active whenever the head unit is turned on. Most Pioneer head units have only the blue/white wire, so that's the best connection for your power antenna. You are correct about the orange and orange/white illumination wires; just tape them off and don't use them. Some head units have a feature where they'll dim the display when you switch the headlights on. Your head unit doesn't have that feature, so there's no need to connect an illumination wire.
