Note: using an optional snap on wire harness adapter will simplify the wiring. Most snap on
wire harness adapters have already converted and color coded the wires from the auto
makers in dash wire harness to match typical aftermarket radio wire colors.
** The wire colors listed in the chart above are typical for these vehicles during these years
but may not be the exact colors for this vehicle. This is another reason to use a snap on
wire harness adapter. **

read (you meant main harness to radio sub harness.)
and car may have 5 or more harness for 5 or more very complex radio head end options new,so only the real service manual covers all that for sure,or if lucky 2nd fiddle here.
remove factory radio ,if you dont have the special tool to do this you can use coat hangers but I perfer using the factory tool sold at wallmart (the cheepest) or autozone push tools into holes on both ends of radio pull radio out. disconect wireing harnes and antenna wire.To install new radio you will need a wireing adaptor and a install kit. These must be spasific to your vehicle. you can buy these online Ebay , or Amazon or off line wallmart or orillys auto parts you will have to connect your new radio wiring harness to wiring adaptor.put install kit on new radio attach antenna wire connect wireing adaptor to original radio wiring push radio gently back into dash with install kit attached. enjoy your new radio. if this was helpful please leave good feed back.
you have to connect speaker wire directly to the radio. Don't have amplifier inbetween the speaker and radio because it is not neccessary. If you want amplifier inbetween the radio speaker wire and the speaker then you most likely the amplifier has another power supply wire and hope that the amplifier does not have any additional control wire thats controled by your original radio.
Hey man, you have an amplified system. use a 70-1858 wiring harness and jump the blue/white wire from the aftermarket radio to the pink wire on the second plug. this will power on the factory amp with the aftermarket radio.
you can find an adapter that installs between the factory harness on the car and the type of radio you are installing,so you don`t have to cut and splice,you just have to unhook the original radio and install the harness to the original harness and connect the other end to the radio your installing and your done.you can find these at most radio and accessory stores.
Here is a website you can go to find which wires are which.

I would also suggest going to places like Car Toys and get a wiring harness to make your installation pain free. If you have the original factory harness for the old stereo still on, all that you would have to do is connect the harness to your new radio and plug it in to the factory harness. No cutting wires necessary.
easy... assuming you have the original wiring harness too often the kids that install aftermarket radios avoid buying the factory harness connector and just cut the old wires
Sounds like your Gr Caravan has the premium sound package. You likely haven't hurt anything - but you may need to modify the wiring a bit. The speakers have a tweeter speaker in the center of the main speaker and the wiring goes through that. However, it only worked with the premium package. Go in to the speakers and move the wiring connections from the tweeter to the main speaker. Your other option is to replace the speakers.
There is no remote wire on these newer trucks....03 and up....u have to buy the harness....although i didnt....i have an 03 gmc sierra and just pulled the schematic and matched the wires. And there is no programming to do on an aftermarket stereo.....I work for GMC and we cant program aftermarket stereos......if u buy the right harness ...and its over $100 then everything should work just fine.....and this does not disarm ur alarm system either....mine still works fine....hope this helps
Google Volvo wiring diagram. They are available free. The diagram shows the wire location and colors. Otherwise, run a continuity test with a simple meter to discover a connection with some resistance between a pair of wires. If you here a click or two, from the speakers, you have found the right pair. Continue and label the pairs left, right, front,rear, until all are identified. Then reconnect. A pain but not rocket science.
I have sucessfully installed the radio, thank you.
do u still need help?
