Section 4: In-Vehicle Harness Connections and Preparation

Step 1

If there are no open ports on the 

CAN junction blocks, unplug one 

factory male connector and insert 

it into the same colored female 

connector on the MQS4PT-36 

harness, then insert the male 

connector on the MQS4PT-36 

harness into the now empty port 

on the CAN junction block.

Behind the glovebox, connect 

the male white connector from 

the MQS4PT-36 harness into the 

green CAN junction block and 

the male green connector from 

the MQS4PT-36 harness into the 

white CAN junction block, then 

run the 4-pin connector on the 

MQS4PT-36 harness behind the 

dash to the radio opening.
