[QUOTE="Phlipbak, post: 4700804, member: 566664"] Ok, my friend asked me to install my cd3000 in his car, so we're doing it (keep in mind we totally winged this I have NEVER done anything with HU's) and we take the wiring harness from my car with the spliced wires from the headunit that are spliced into it out and we used his HU's (kenwood double din) wiring harness that's plugged into his adaptor by plugging the end that was plugged into his HU into mine.. HAHA bad idea NEVER do this to you noobs.. for a second it smelled, so I yanked it out real quick.. little puff of smoke comes out of the slot on the back of the HU that the wiring harness plugs into.. so we're like oh gosh it's fried.. we plug it back up to my car's (and the HU's RIGHT wiring harness) and it works fine.. so we're like wow it's fine.. so it turns on and plays songs and such and all the lights in it work and everything, so we're like awesome.. so we figure ok, we have to unsplice the wires and splice it to the other harness that HAS to be the way to do it haha (mainly we figured this out cuz my other buddy who has done this just got back from somewhere and was like that's not how you do it you have to splice and unsplice to the harness).. so we unsplice, then we splice and match colors on his car's peripheral harness (the right way) but now it won't cut on.. It works, because it works in my car still, maybe we fried the peripheral harness? What you think? Thanks HAHA! Trevor [/QUOTE]
