OK guys, long story short. While installing an ipod interface for my Bose system I got the wiring in a connector F'd up. If anyone is switching steros or doing anything like that I'd appreciate it if you can help me with the wire color code for the 10-pin connector with the red arrow. Attached is a diagram of the connector with color code. If you have the back of the stereo opened up I'd really appreciate your help. Right now I have no sound, no control over the A/C, no rear or front defroster functionality. Arrrgh!!!! I'm trying Infiniti and Bose. No luck so far.

 

it sounds like you have a bad ground or bad power.

check those 2 wires.

 

It's the red one that's messed up. It supplies power to the stereo, CD, A/c controls I believe. When I pulled it out to replace it with the interface connector I got the wires unconnected and mixed up. So now I need to recreate the connector by wire number/color into the interface so I can get power. If I make the wrong connections I can mess something up big time.

 

Did you check your fuses?

When you say you got it mixed up what do you mean?

 

hopefully u don't fry ur system, sometimes mix up can be the "Death" of something, lil mix up r ok

 

The fuse block looks OK. When I pulled the connecter from the bose I pulled the inside so I only pulled a mixture of wires in a sense. Just imagine a mixture of 10 wires and trying to figure out where they belong in the plastic connector. I taped each one off with electrical tape to protect against short circuit. As far as I can tell I'm OK so far. The A/C defaults to auto/ac 75. What I need to know is the color match to each position in the connector so I can restore power. So for instance :
1= color X
2 = color Y

if you have pics of that connector it would help a lot too.

 

That`ll teach you! You should just put up with the crappy stereo like the rest of us poor folks!
Seems like I read about an aftermarket electronics company that had the diagrams for our Blose on the net..Crutchfield??? Any of you audiofiles know? Good luck. Troubleshooting wiring w/o a diagram is tough!

 

Thanks for nada

 

Ahh got it. I have a friend who was going to try to do his DD this weekend. Let me see if he still is and if he can take some pics.

 

Thanks ttrank,

Anyting you can give me is much appreciated.
