1994 Celica GTS CD Deck Wiring help........ Options

[hawkoner]

OK so i bought a 1994 Celica GTS 5spd and am replacing the aftermarket cd deck, there was a crappy sony one in there that wasnt wired properly so i took it out. I have a JVC USB Bluetooth deck to install. The car has no harness, i have to hard wire it. There are duplicate colored wires coming from the factory dash which is making the install difficult. I already checked out installdr but it doesnt help. Anyone have input on my situation?

i'd say the amp is toast. the amp easily fries if a live wire touches the casing which usually happens during stereo installs. so either go back to the junk yard and pull out the amp if it's still there, or buy an aftermarket amp although the harnesses you bought would be useless.

pulling out the amp is a bit tricky since you need to unhook the heater coolant valve on the firewall in the engine bay to pull out the climate control cluster, then remove the whole center console to gain access to the amp.

Okay its probably the amp then, i just tested the wires again and the red lights the light but the yellow doesnt, i tried on both harness's the hacked one and the one i bought from the wrecker. I have an appointment tomorrow at "Car tunes" Hopefully the guy there will be able to get the audio working. Thanks for your help
