trying to wire in my alpine deck but i'm having some trouble. car is a 91 integra. nothing i try seems to work. help?
wires from the car are:
red with green stripe
red with yellow stripe
red with black stripe
yellow with red stripe
yellow with white stripe

 

well you should have used a wire harness if the facory plug was still there.

but here.

yel/red - is accy goes to red wire on radio

blue/wht - 12v constant

Yel/wht - power antenna

red/blk - Illumination

blk - ground

red/yel - RR+

brn/wht - RR-

blue/yel - LR+

grey/wht LR-

blue/grn - LF+

gry/blk - LF-

red/grn - RF+

Brn/blk - RF-

 

Cutting harnesses is no good.

 

i see we have another fellow isntaller...hah good wiring hook

 

Yeah, Im sure you could just googled 88 and up honda wire colors and found the same thing

</TD></TR></TABLE> Try here, http://www.installdr.com/Harnesses/HA-Wiring.pdf then also check both the radio acc. fuse in the under dash fuse box and the backup fuse in the under hood fuse box, [it will be a 7.5A].
That said, the Alpine Hu needs more then 7.5A for it's yellow lead, [constant power]
DO NOT replace the 7.5A fuse with a bigger one, it will not help and you can damage the cars wire harness. As you should have read in the install manual, it tells you to connect the yellow directly to the batt., just run a fused 10ga or 12ga wire from the batt. to behind the HU and connect the yellow to it, SQ will be better, don't forget to cap off the stock constant power wire, [white w/yellow or blue tracer] also if the Alpine HU you have does not have an illumination wire, cap off the stock wire, [red/black] 94

 

the best thing to do is go to best buy or circuit city after you get the diagram get a reverse harness and then wire it to stock wires then up to the head unit harness that way if you ever sell it u could put the stock one back it with no problem and it also makes future upgrades easier

Amazing, Thing is I work at store 110. Your right the harn. are 18.49. But thats if he wants to do it himself. But if hes having trouble with a hu. wiring(no offense) then I dont think he should do it himself. so then heres the list:

18.49 rev har x1
18.49 har. x1
5.00 material fee
~40.00 labor fee
-----------------
81.98

and thats just for the rev. har
with hu install its something like this

18.49 rev har x1
18.49 har. x1
5.00 material fee
~40.00 labor fee
-----------------
81.98
18.49 for dash kit(if needed)x1
11.49/12.49 caps or filters x2 (if needed)
---------------
111.96 or 112.96


thats if we do it. but if he does it himself it would be around 40-50

AHAHAHAHA thats cool man big ups to 110. Man i quit bestbuy in august cus my supervisor was a dick. I gave him a bottle of clearasil and told him to have a nice day (supe. has extremely bad acne) o ya i worked in the install bay too. U dont need speaker filters those are jsut money for best buy, wiring is easer just match the colors on aftermarket harness. I recomend not connecting the dimmer wires (orange ones) just cus they have high risks of blowing . Trust me if you cant install your own headunit u neeeeeeed to find a new hobby.

lol, yeah you dont need the filters. But hey who doesnt like money? I also dont connect the dimmer wire. (not because of the blowing part) i just never connected it. Yeah, its just color coded wires but some people just suck at connecting 2 wires together Its also cool to meet another best buy installer. (i mean ex-installer)

 

I am also an installer at BB... 545 in NY.... And I don't hook up dimmers either...

 

the only thing good about bestbuy was the discount. I dont recomend people workin there for an actual living though. Best discount in car audio and home thearter i got all my **** before i quit

im just working there because i want to "soup up" my car. once i do that or get far enough into "souping" it up then im going to find a better place.

 

Just there part time for extra cash, and the discount, of course...
