Hi guys,
Need some advice: I recently purchased an used Mach 460 CD (Single) Player including it's rear connector, and would like to connect it to my 95' Mustang OEM Radio-Cassette Player.
I was made to believe it would be relatively easy, just connecting one wire. Also, to keep things simple, I didn't want to add any extra amplifiers.
When I tried connecting the in-dash CD Player to the factory radio-cassette (via the included OEM wiring) two small connectors labeled "amp" are left disconnected, as does a third one ( 2 rows: 7 contacts above plus 4 below). Obviously, these have something to do with the two missing amplifiers, or the extra speakers found in the 460 system.
As it is, the CD player doesn't turn on, and the sound level of the radio-cassette has greatly decreased. I intend to disconnect everything tomorrow, and leave it as it was for the time being.
Do I have to obtain the factory amps, plus the wiring and new speakers, or is there a way to connect the In-Dash CD Player to the existing OEM Amp? I was satisfied with the kind of sound I had before, I just wanted to have the alternative to directly change a CD, instead of stopping and going to the trunk to place a new cd-carrier in the changer.
TIA
