[QUOTE="Twistid, post: 1380917, member: 555101"] theres a serperate illumination wire though, and i tried puttin that other wire on the red wire and i connected it and that totally fuxd shit up, that wasent smart but i guess it wasent a smart idea it made a whining sound and when i turned on headlights they wouldent even come on, but luckily when i unplugged the alpine it went back to normal... i baught this headunit used , do you think somethings wrong with it? i checked all the wiring , do you want me to post a pic of what it looks like? " Your manual will have an actual break out of what the wires from the alpine are for. Some may not be matching. ps, you may have to ground your HU to the car separately." how do i find out if this information is true? this is a whole lotta bs for a simple head unit [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif[/IMG] edit:; wait i have a positive dimmer AND illumination comming from the gm harness there is a orange wire illumination, and then there is an orange and white called positive dimmer, i had illumination connected to "dash light (illumination)" on the alpine harness should i connect both illumination and positive dimmer on the gm side to illumination on the alpine harness?
