  • Need some help with Bose factory head unit

    Hello everyone, i have acquired a very nice OEM Bose cd player for my Camaro. I purchased the plug to reverse the wiring back to factory but when i hook it up all i can get is the courtesy light to come on, the one where you insert the cd. Can someone look at the plugin i purchased and tell me what wires go to what in my factory harness? I have tried every combination i can think of but the fan on the rear on the unit and the clock/tuner lights will not come on. Thanks!stereo.JPG
    Thanks,
    Stephen

    You will love that system.

    I dont know what wire is power, but blue sticks in my head as being important.

        Bose OEM deck will need the amps to go with it. Dark blue is right rear positive, but like I said, no Bose amps = no audio.

        Power Wires:
        Pink - Triggers relay for external amp power
        Black - Ground
        Yellow - Switched 12v (Key on, key acc, or retained acc power)
        Orange - Constant 12v
        Gray - 12v from 5A Dimmer fuse
        Brown - Variable from Dimmer
