hi, i'm the owner of a '96 dodge neon, it comes with the factory AM/FM player (doesn't work[&:]), i want to replace it with a new one but the wiring is a mess, some one can help me?, i dont know, maybe a wiring diagram, o some tips to install my new player? thanks

sorry about my english it sucks but i do my best.....

 

Do you have a new head unit or are you just wondering about it? Because all that wiring should connect to a wiring harness on your stock stereo and if you purchase a new head unit then it might come with, but you can buy a new wiring harness that will plug right the new harness into the old. Or you can just splice all the wires with the new head unit's harness if you dont get a new one. Understand what Im trying to say?

 

hi, ok the situation is this.
i have a new clarion unit, this unit comes with the wiring diagram, you know, red cable (12v), yellow for ****ch, speakers, etc.... the problem is the old wiring, the harness is diferent, it have so much wires than the new harness, and im confused which one is for what? even the color of wires is totaly diferent there is no one red or yellow..... what can i do? the only way is check the wires one by one with a multimeter?
thanks

 

You need to go to the store, walmart would have it, and buy a wiring harness for your car.. This way you wont have to cut into your current connector, and it is much easier this way since you will only have to match color to color!

 

yeah thats what I was sayin. Just go buy a wirring harness and you just plug the two together and have to splice only a few wires

 

ok thank you guys, ill try to get the harness tomorrow and try to install it, sounds easy to do ( i hope 0_o)
ill keep you informed

regards

 

hi again,
well i tried to get the wirring harness... and i fail = ( , but i get the wiring configuration of the factory harness =) and here it is maybe be useful for someone....thank you for everithing see you....

In Dodge Neon:
Factory in-dash wire harness has 2 pc harness (black plug and gray plug).

(Black plug)
Rear Right speaker -: Blue w/White stripe
Rear Left speaker -: Brown w/Yellow stripe
Front Right +: Purple
Front Left +: Dark Green
Rear Right speaker +: Blue w/Orange Stripe
Rear Left speaker +: Brown w/Blue Stripe
Power Antenna/Amp: White
(Gray Plug)
+12v battery wire: Pink or Pink w/White Stripe
+12v Ignition wire: Red w/ White Stripe
Front Right speaker -: Blue w/ Red Stripe
Front Left speaker -: Brown w/ Red Stripe
Metal braid plastic connector attached to back of radio is the ground wire.

 

I recently took apart and removed a few broken teeth from my pioneer head unit which fixed the jamming problem but now I have no visual display. Upon removal of the unit to check i noticed several wires had come loose from the harness plug housing, one of which was labeled "ILL" (assuming this is illumination)... Does this color guide apply to 2002 neon cd players, if not where could I find this information?

 

I second the splicing/wiring kit, or if you really wanna cut the factory plugs off, leave yourself enough slack so if you need to put them back on you have enough wire to splice it back to original

 

I hate when retards cut the factory harness, DO IT THE RIGHT WAY.
