Guest wildsquaddie Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 HI, Does anyone know if my pioneer deh 1120mp stereo should work with only the live and earth wires connected?? Just bought it and I have to wire it in manually, as my cab has no connecting blocks. Having a right nightmere,,,,,, Does the acc wire need to be connected, I hate electrics, keep blowing stereos up!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wildsquaddie Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Still not working, I connected the red - live, Black - earth and yellow - acc, to the new stereo and it still does not switch on. Has any one got any ideas what to try next?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wildsquaddie Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Its all working now, I didnt realise that the power only goes through the acc wire when you turn the ignition on, how thick am I.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Soggyllama Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 yeah if i remember correctly, my pioneer had the colours the other way round to the standard wiring, I think my pioneer red wire went to the escorts yellow wire (or vica versa). You COULD wire both pioneers power wires to the +12 live feed to the escort. That would mean then that you could have the stereo on even with your keys out of the ignition. Anyway glad you solved the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
