[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8653996, member: 576029"] You explained that both the ignition and constant battery are orange, please verify as this seems to be a typo. This is what I find for '78+: Constant 12V+: Orange Ignition Switched 12V+: Yellow Ground: Black Illumination: Gray Dimmer: Brown Antenna Trigger: Pink Some of the older cars used a common ground configuration which modern radios will not accept. Please verify if you speaker wiring is common ground or dedicated ground. Also, there may be a thick gray wire which is speaker and a thin gray wire which is illumination - be sure to not mix those up! [/QUOTE]
