Power Wire Harness

hi jeff, recheck the power wiring again namely the yellow,red and black wires. when the harness is wired and then connected to the unit you will notice that the cd eject motor will run for a few seconds. this is a good sign that the unit is correcly wired up. make sure that both the re and yellow wires receives +12v once the vehicle is started. if this does not help then the rest of the problem lay inside ur unit. cheers.

should be a red wire in the dash that is the power to what should be a red wire at the back of the unit.connect together and insulate.then there should be a black negative wire behind the unit that gets connected to some part of the metal frame behind the dash

if the wire harness plugs into the back of the deck it should work.

on the back of your head unit is the remote arial wire. this is the one you connect to the rem on your amp

just try disconnecting the wire harness or power to the radio overnight and see if it will reset itself.

Make sure you have the illumination(orange wire with a white line) hooked up to the solid orange on your cars wire harness

contact pioneer here and ask them to send you one.

Well.. if there is smoke coming from the head unit, the head unit could be bad. It odviously may have a wire crossed or a fuse blown, or even the wire harness could be bad. First, check the fuse for the radio on drivers side door, then check the other fuse box under the hood. Make sure all radio fuses are intact and not blown. Second, check behind the head unit to make sure no wires are touching each other and shorting out. Third, if nothing else helps, buy a new head unit & wiring harness :]

hope this helps!!!

It is on the Pioneer Electronics Page, its $39.72 (USD).
