CD6 Power wire??

Anyone know off hand which color is the 12v+ on the CD6 in an 06??

I am thinking it's the green w/ purple stripe, but I don't have a meter to test it. Got my dash off and just trying to find a suitable switched power wire to hook up a PIE AUX adapter. Green w/purple is on the plug above the radio fuse and present on the back of the radio, so my superslueth skills are suggesting that one.

If all else fails I will tap the powerpoint, but I would rather have it switched.

Thanks in advance.

You might want to post this in the audio/video section. A few of those guys have ways to look up all the radio wire colors.

It usta was that the power center (fuse panel) had several blank unswitched points, just check hot side with digital mm, key on, and then off, when one checks out as switched, but is unused, an appropriate fuse can be installed and then wire in your accessary. I have not checked a late model to see if the power center still has unused points.
