Aftermarket CD Changer

Hi Everyone. I have a 1994 F-150XL. the sound system is really bad, I just replaced the factory AM/FM radio with a used factory cassette player. I got my hands on a Pioneer 6 Disc Cd changer that I want to mount behind the seat. I have all the cables and it seems pretty easy to install, but I am concerned with two wires(one orange and one red). are these ground wires? where do I connect them? Does anyone know?

I welcome any suggestions anyone may have.

Thanks.

Red should be constant power and orange memory? (switched). have you looked at the manufacturers web site most of them have wiring diagrams.

Good Luck
Chris

Red and Orange are power.
Red is Constant(memory) and the Orange is switched(acessory)

If you hook them up backwards, It just wont Eject when the key is off, Reverse them and you'll be fine.

BLACK wire is ground.
