Wiring With No Harness Or Schematic

I have just purchased, haven't received it yet', a Sony CDX-A30 it is an old cd changer with a separate a box for the changer that goes in the trunk, a slim control module, and two other boxes one of which is the FM tuner. Here is my problem that I desperately need help with, it does not have the power harness that supplies the unit with power and one does not seem to be available. Here is what I have figured out so far the module where the power harness plugs in has rca outs for front and rear speakers, so I believe it's preamp only, so I think the power harness should only require a switched +, an always on + for memory, ground, a + out to power up the amps, but I am not sure what else. The socket where the connector goes has 9 pins, so I am not sure why so many.

How can I determine what pin is what. I figure I can find the ground with an Ohm meter, but what about the rest? Thanks for your help.

 
good luck. best bet is to do image searches on the web and hope you find one of the harness.

i don't know old Sony as well as other brands. maybe someone will.

specific model numbers on each piece will help your search.
