[0r30 10+ year member]

So, I got my Alpine 9886 and im connecting the alpine to the harness to plug into my explorer but i have 3 wires left from the alpine that i have no clue were they go to

one is a Pink/Black wire (audio interupt lead)

second is Blue wire (power antenna lead)

third is blue/white wire ( remote turn on lead)

now i am pulling my hair because i can not find anything about were these wire go to or what....

Any help would be greatly apreciated.

Did you purchase a harness adapter for your make and model of vehicle? Those have pretty clear instructions and once you wire up the harness adapter all you need to do is plug it into the stock OEM harness. The remote turn on wire will go to your amp remote turn on input. You should wire it through a relay though if possible.

you just dont use those wires. some vehicles dont need/use them.

-The blue wire is if you have a powered antenna that comes out when your listeneing to the radio

-pink/black is if you have a bluetooth setup

-and blue/white is to turn on your amps if you have any.
