Hi,
I've got an AM/FM/CD player that I pulled out of a 1996 Dodge Stratus (I think this is basically the same as a Chrysler Sirrus) that I am trying to install into my 1987 GMC S15 quarter ton truck. I'm a little confused on the pinouts (quite different between the two) and thought there might be some experts out there to offer some advice.
Chrysler Pinout (2 connectors, 14 pins):
Feed connector Speaker connector ----------------- ---------------------- | 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 | | 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 | ----------------- ----------------------
The top label provides the following:
Part Number: P4858555
12V D.C. Negative Ground
1: BAT
2: ACC
3: ILL
4: PARK
5: RF-
6: LF-
7: MUTE
8: RR-
9: LR-
10: RF+
11: LF+
12: RR+
13: LR+
14: ANT
GMC S15 (DELCO Radio) Pinout:
------- ------- --------- | 1 2 | | 5 6 | | 9 10 | | 3 4 | | 7 8 | | 11 12 | ------- ------- ---------
My quarter ton only has 7 wires out of the total of 14 hooked up (no rear speakers), the others are blanked. After an afternoon of googling, it looks like these are the interesting pins
1: 12V power
2: (empty) Antenna
3: Ground
4: Illumination
5: RF-
6: LF-
7: RF+
8: LF+
9: (empty) LR-
10: (empty) RR-
11: (empty) LR+
12: (empty) RR+
13: (empty) Memory
14: (emtpy) Dimmer
Ok, so I hook up the two radios using the following mappings:
C1 -> G1 C5 -> G5 C6 -> G6 C10 -> G7 C11 -> G8 C3 -> G4
This doesn't work. Radio doesn't turn on, no activity. I've realised that I have no idea which pins I should be using for 12V DC and Ground on the Chrysler radio, and didn't want to just pin hop experiment. Anyone have a suggestion? Where should the G1 (12V) and the G3 (Ground) attach to the chrysler radio? I know for certain that both the radio and the wires in the truck are ok -- the chrysler radio works in the stratus, and the old delco works in the truck.
Thanks in advance. Please reply both the newsgroup, and via email if you don't mind ( snipped-for-privacy@netrpg.com)...
