Replying to: dh88 (Aug 26, 2007 1:00 pm) I was going to recommend installdr.com - did you try Try Crutchfield.com too? You might find some free wiring diagrams online with one of the links in the Online Repair Manuals guide.   When I hit an impasse like this, I go back to square one and start over.   Anyone?

Replying to: steve_ (Aug 26, 2007 1:19 pm) I looked at Crutchfield but their info is all for the wiring harnesses and as per the JVC install instructions, I cut that out.   The install dr wiring diagram of the plug is close to what's in my truck but apparently not close enough.   The cd player worked fine in my old Trooper.   Nothing I do with the battery will cause static in the speakers. Any idea on that?   I'm ready to just try combos of wiring but don't want to short anything. Replies to this message: steve_ (Aug 26, 2007 3:47 pm)

Replying to: dh88 (Aug 26, 2007 1:28 pm) The last time I put a radio in was 1982.   Some sites say to use a 9 volt battery to check the speakers for a short, not AAs. You should hear a pop or thump if they are ok.   Only thing else I can think of is a short in the speaker wire, flaky fuse somewhere or a bad ground. Unless you managed to turn the balance or fade button so far when you were swapping stuff around that you killed the sound that way.   Here's another link to look at. Oh, here's another.
