Note: The wiring harness has the
following labels.
Using an Adapter Harness
If you are replacing an existing
stereo, or if your vehicle has been
factory-wired for autosound compo-
nents, you can use an adapter har-
ness to connect the power and
speakers. RadioShack stores sell
adapter harnesses for most vehi-
cles.
Follow the directions that come with
the adapter harness to temporarily
connect the power and speakers.
After you connect the adapter har-
ness to your vehicle, you can skip
“Connecting Ground, Power, and
Optional Components” and “Con-
necting Two Pairs of Speakers” on
Page 9 or “Connecting One Pair of
Speakers” on Page 10.
Connecting Ground, Power,
and Optional Components
Follow these steps to connect the
harness to ground, primary and
memory backup power, and optional
components.
1. Disconnect the cable from your
vehicle battery’s negative (
–
) ter-
minal.
2. Connect the black ground wire
to a chassis ground, such as a
metal screw attached to a metal
part of the vehicle’s frame. Be
sure that the screw is not insu-
lated from the chassis by a plas-
tic part.
