Who makes the CD player and is that all the wires you have?
2 red/yellow
1 red/green
1 black


I would think there would be more
1 power
1 ground
not knowing how many speakers
2 speaker
1 left +
1 left -
1 right +
1 right -


4 speaker
1 left front +
1 left front -
1 right front +
1 right front -
1 left rear +
1 left rear -
1 right rear +
1 right rear-


they could be doing the speaker - thru the CD player ground thru the car/truck body not a good way of doing it.

So the wires you listed are wires you don't know what they do?
Then you post white w/blue dots?
Might help if you list ALL wire colors not just the one you don't know are.


We still don't know who makes this thing as someone may know the wires.

Dave - Good luck. He isn't taking enough time to ask his questions nor state what he needs for me to understand. If you figure out what he needs and think I have the info search my site for it. Or send me a PM.

Yea I tried to help but he / she is not clear on what they need. Different wire colors and does not say on what the truck or player?


At first and what most need is the color of the wires on the player and what they do/go to.
I would think the truck side would be cake. Find power with key on, trace speaker wires and hook it up.
Again they would need to know the wires on the player side.


Some you just cant help

Wire colors for what? You need to slow down and construct your posts so that they explain what you are asking for, and do so in full sentences that have proper punctuation. Why? Because we cannot read your mind, and because without proper punctuation many of us won't bother to try figuring it out.

There are way more people asking questions than I can possibly get to with the time each day I give to FTE. So I have to pick and chose whom I'll help. People who won't take the time to explain what they have and ask their questions in a clear fashion using reasonable punctuation go to the bottom of the list. I'm taking my time to help them, so why won't they take their time to make it easy for me?

And, since this is a Ford truck site and not an audio site, much less a Clarion site, we have to assume you are asking questions of the truck and not the stereo. You've already been given links to the info on the truck.
