which is the possitive and negative on the purple and green and are they front or back.my stereo keeps shorting out and
631940
standard wiring shows purple and green are rear speaker lines, the negative should have a black stripe
631941
the stripes would be on wires, if you mean the jacks, then those are the rear jacks and they should already be wired for correct positive and negative. If you're wiring your speaker wires to jacks for connection, I'm not sure which way it would go, sorry.

When it comes to speaker wires it doesn't necessarily matter which is which, they will work either way, but optimally if wired correctly. If it is shorting out, your positive wire to the radio, either the red or yellow, or possibly blue, are cut and grounding out your system either on your adapter or higher in the system. It could also be in your radio itself to where your radio is faulty. I've had both scenarios happen with me. Hope this helps.

Hello, As it shows on the side of the radio the power supply should be a 4.5volt DC 200ma wall wort power supply and the CENTER pin is -negative polarity. I would suggest that you take the radio to a local store to find the correct plug that goes into the radio. I am only using the radio with batteries with my unit. Good luck, Ed.

We received this stereo & it would not power on. We had to send it back. So be careful when buying from this company.

I would do some basic trouble shooting. Verify your hot wire is hot and your ground is grounded. Also your player chassis may need to be grounded behind the dashboard. Make sure the radio faceplate is seated properly. Did you push the power button or are you trying to twist the knob to turn it on. Was your old radio working?

Once you install the stereo, you have to go into the settings and take it off of display mode. That should take care of the problem for ya.

First off, did the stereo you removed from the dash still work (sound, power, etc)? If so the first and most likely suspect is incorrect wiring -- verify that *all* connections are correct. If it's still not working, verify the inline fuse hasn't blown and then check the vehicle fusebox (both under-dash and under-hood). If all three of these conditions check OK then the stereo is DOA from the factory; otherwise you've already found the problem.

Be sure black is connected to a good ground, blue is connected to blue/white which is remote system control from pioneer, and green is hooked up to the light green cable from pioneer. If it isnt working, its possible your head unit is a newer type that cant be fooled by the bypass. If your head unit is listed on the amazon page for the product, i wkukd contact the vendor for more help, it coukd be defective unit.

That happened to us too but it was the right side. Then the unit stopped working altogether. When we checked the digitizer connection it was loose. You may have not connected the digitizer completely, which could result in a short and could blow the unit. Or the unit is bad. Not being a professional, I'm not sure. Good luck!

The front aux. input is not easy to see - it's recessed and behind a panel. I don't see why 4 or 8 ohm speakers would not work.

Check for a possible short in speaker wires .Maybe a small piece of wire lying across terminals on back of unit. Or possible short in reciever.

Hi Drusilla Freeman-Daniels, you may check the wiring for your speaker. You can unplug and replug the cables coming from your speakers to their respective ports on the main unit. Hope this helps. -Ely

Check that all wires are fully connected. Other wise it would probably be something internal in which case yeah I would return it. Other thing would be speakers but if you only noticed it with the new amp then there's your issue.

You need to make sure that you are supplying a power feed to the radio headbunit. The wire diagrams refer to it as "back or backup". I ran mine from the revers light wires.

There's a red and a white colored set of audio connectors that go from the base to your audio system. Check to see that they are both plugged in solidly (you can pull them out and reinsert). I also discovered that the further away from the base I sat, the easier it was to start losing the sound track, which might sound like one side or the other is missing.

I had the same problem but I fixed it all you gotta do push kinda hard on the output wire for the to side speakers it worked for me

Thanks, i'll check for the switch on the back tonight. i'm sure the polarity is correct, red to lead (+) and black to ground (-) right?

Make sure the cables are making good contact with the stereo connection point, then make sure the speaker cables are making good contact and there are no breaks in those cables. Still have a an issue? You should swap out the new cable with another same type cable, if it goes away when you do that, its the cable that needs to be returned. You can also try to add a grounding wire.
