Bought a 1991 Volkswagen Passat Gl stereo was ripped out and wires cut trying to figure out what each wire is
Red/white is the battery 12volts
brown is ground
white/blue or gray/white is interior (dash) light
on the others get a volt ohm meter and check the resistant between each wire, to an the others if it moves then there maybe a speaker but keep checking because there could have two speakers using the some ground, if you are putting a high power radio in each speaker needs its own ground. the safety way is put new wires for the speakers.
Here is a link listing all the colors/wires for your 91 Passat. Good Luck!

These details will help you thanks.
To reprogram the
radio there is 4 digit code. That code has to be inserted, once these code is inserted,
your car radio will get into its actual setting where you can set/select your
radio setting.
Many
a time's radio asks for the code after car battery is disconnected.
On
some cases to retrieve the code its mentioned in manual or else car
dealer is other option to get car radio code.
