Does anyone have an install manual or color code chart for a Sony xr-17 am/fm cassette stereo from the 80's?

Ok, this is an update to my question. I had 2 answers so far with the same service manual referenced. Thank you for that however I already have that service manual and unfortunately it does not have the information I seek in it. I did however find the OG owners manual for the 1988 Sea Ray Sorrento S-23 that this stereo is installed in. Here is what it says the radio wiring is. Thanks anyway for your answers. All Wiring is 16 gauge Brown is right speaker positive White is right speaker negative Yellow is right speaker negative Green is left speaker negative Red/Violet is power Black is ground

This is the best I can do for you. I don't see any free manuals on line. In fact, I am hard pressed to find this anywhere else. (Vintage Manuals in Indiana appears closed, although you see web references to it.)

SOURCE: I disconnected the car battery

you need to take it to the dealer to have them reset the codein the radio. Unless you have the code, the dealership can reset the code and you can reset yourself a new code. You can also try any electrical shop that has the proper scanning equipment to unlock the radio codes. Hope this helps.

I have a Sony Amplifier [model TA-AX380] and other components of CD player [model DCP-C40], AM/FM Tuner [model ST-JX380], FM Stereo/FM-AM Receiver [model STR-AV570X], and Stereo Cassette Deck [model...

Hi above are links for manuals, these may help..
When one wires up anything it is all usually color to color output to input... usually RED & WHITE stereo audio.
Now we would start with our Tuner this the CD player, & Cassette deck, will wire into the Amp's INPUTs , red - red & white - white, these go into the Stereo INPUTs on the AMP... 1, 2 & 3 and be selected via the input selector on the AMP.
Now after all these in's and out's are wired we need to wire our speakers, this too is simple, locate the outputs on the Amp, and wire accordingly, Plus to Plus and Negative to Negative... each speaker has two wires a Plus, + & a Negative -
All will/should be clearly marked and it will be easy to do. You will need patch leads, one set each for each unit, these will be a pair of cables, usually Red & White with RCA jacks on each end, as related these go color to color from the RCA OUTPUTs Sockets, of the signal suppliers, ie: Tuner, FM stereo & Cassette deck... these ALL will wire into the Main Amplifiers INPUTS, usually at rear of unit, and clearly marked, after this is all done, then as related again now connect the Speakers, again the OUTPUT on the Amp will be clearly marked, as output and + & -, + & - (two sets), one for each channel.
Now each INPUT is selected ON the AMP, and it's output will then be directed to the speakers attached to the Amp..... Just wire and test one at a time, and i am sure you will prevail.
Hope this helps.
