[QUOTE="husker77, post: 7966410, member: 641116"] I can't tell from your post if the radio just isn't working or if you can't get it hooked up but if you have it hooked up and it still isn't powering on here is some advise. Do you know how to check for power and ground? Do you have a test light or multimeter of some sort? Make sure you have power to the white/purple all the time. Make sure you have power to the black/pink with the key on. And make sure the black/green is grounded. 1997 Ford Expedition Car Radio Wiring Diagram Car Radio Battery Constant 12v+ Wire: White/Purple Car Radio Accessory Switched 12v+ Wire: Black/Pink Car Radio Ground Wire: Black/Green Car Radio Illumination Wire: Blue/Black Car Stereo Dimmer Wire: N/A Car Stereo Antenna Trigger Wire: N/A Car Stereo Amp Trigger Wire: Blue Car Stereo Amplifier Location: N/A Car Audio Front Speakers Size: 6″ x 8″ Speakers Car Audio Front Speakers Location: Doors Left Front Speaker Positive Wire (+): White/Red Left Front Speaker Negative Wire (-): Brown Right Front Speaker Positive Wire (+): Green Right Front Speaker Negative Wire (-): White/Orange Car Audio Rear Speakers Size: 6″ x 8″ Speakers Car Audio Rear Speakers Location: Rear Doors Left Rear Speaker Positive Wire (+): Light Blue/Black Left Rear Speaker Negative Wire (-): Yellow Right Rear Speaker Positive Wire (+): Purple/White Right Rear Speaker Negative Wire (-): Light Blue [/QUOTE]
