Installing xm
I need to know which wire out the back of the radio is the actual acc wire so I can wire up my XM radio. Actually any wire that is only hot when the key is in the ACC our On POSITION WILL WORK. Can any one tell me which wire it is to the radio??

It is either red or orange larger gauge wire, i cannot remember now
you could pull the radio, the radio connectors, and use a voltmeter. check for 12 V with key on, then off, and then watch voltage drop to 0 when opening the door. that is radio accessory
if i find this post after getting back to work next week monday, i will confirm color or location for you as my stereo has been out 6 times installing DVD, and other accessories.
We just got back from a week in Mexico. (NO MAS TEQUILA !!!) and I cannot remember which wire. sorry
