Wiring with a Wiring Adapter
This is the easiest wiring method, because it replaces your existing radio. You will have to buy a wire
harness adapter from your dealer, a car stereo installation shop or electronics store. If you use a wiring
adapter, you can connect all wires to the radio before you even start to take your old radio out.
Connect Wires
Splice, crimp or solder the wires from the
Jensen connector to the wiring adapter. Match
the wires according to the chart (below) and
the wiring adapter instructions.
Attach Wires to Radio
1. After splicing the wiring adapter to the
Jensen connector, attach the connector to
the back of the radio as shown.
2. Attach antenna extender cable (not sup-
plied) and antenna adapter (if needed).
Go to Testing on page 8.
Install Wiring Inside the Car
1. Connect wiring adapter to the car's exist-
ing wiring harness.
2. Connect antenna extender cable (not
supplied) to car antenna lead.
