Alright, I purchased the Pioneer DEH 2100IB a while back and am now in the process of installing it. Everything is going fine except Im not sure how to go about connecting the wires. According to Crutchfield, they said I needed this Chrysler Interface

and so i got it. What do i do next. I think I need to crimp some wires but I suck at electrical work. Can some one help me? thanks
here some pics of my work so far

 

Raminator do you know what butt connectors are and how to use them?

 

just hook your adapters you got from crutchfield to the factory and from their just wire color to color. if you need help pm me . and if you were not so far away id come over and do it for you.

 

ive seen them but am not sure on how to use them. Will I need to crimp the wires if I use them. Are they something like crimp caps?

 

thanks for the offer. i wish it would work lol

i have another question. in my fouth picture, there are two of the plastic boxes (one big and one small). i know the big one attaches the box on the Chrysler interface but what about the smaller one?

 

the smaller one looks to be a plug for stearing wheel control ? do you have this??

 

Here is what they look like http://www.wiringproducts.com/index1.html?lang=en-us&target=d47.html&gclid=CJ38m7KIppkCFQwNGgodrhU3q A
red should be what you need. Here is how to use them http://answers.yahoo.com/question/in...0213843AAgBtMi
I did my wiring with butt connectors, crimping/stripping tool, and some electrical tape. Most of it is just matching up the color of and stripes on the wires from your receiver to the harness. If that smaller plug doesn't fit in your harness and you have the right harness just hook it up with what you have and test it before reassembling your dash. If you have the crutchfield install guide see if it says something about the smaller plug.

 

nope, the only controls are for cruise control

 

ok, i see. its like an alternative to crimping the wires and twisting them together and then using electrical tape to wrap them together.
the only thing crutchfield said was something about hooking up the 12 volt power source
should i just match the colors from the pioneer's stereo harness to the wires on the Chrysler interface and not worry about extending and splicing the yellow wire into a 12 volt power source
there will be some extra wires on both sides that wont match each other. do i just leave the alone?

 

The yellow wire should splice into the harness which will be plugged in and hooked up so you should be good there. The blue wire is typically your signal wire for amps if you have them and almost everything else should match up. I'm not sure about red and orange wires off the interface though, but all of the wires off the harness have what they are written on them so you should be able to read and/or match by color.
