Wiring harness trouble NEED HELP!!?

I recently purchased a wiring harness so i could hook up my aftermarket stereo to my 2001 chevy blazer. The Harness i have has every color of wire except for Blue/White which is the wire that i am suppose to hook up my remote wire too from my amplifier. So i dont know where to hook the remote wire too, do i need to get another harness or.?And another question on the harness i have for my pioneer DEH-P4600MP it has all colors for the harness for my blazer except for Orange/White wire. This wire is dimmer so would i just not even worry about hooking that wire up to anything?

Answer:

Since a stock receiver does not have a remote lead, some aftermarket wiring harnesses will not include it. The head unit however, will have a lead usually marked as such and sometimes terminated with a female bullet connector. Just connect that lead to the remote wire going to your amp remote terminal. If the Blazer wiring harness includes a dimmer lead, connect the orange/white to it. If not, just leave it disconnected and protect the end so that it does not short against other wires or ground. With it disconnected, the receiver lighting will not dim when you turn on the lights.
