I have a 75 2.0, I was trying to put in a new aftermarket stereo, but found the red and yellow power leads were not connected to the fuse panel, or anywhere. Do I need to run these directly to the battery or where should it be patched into the fuse box? thanks

Kontrabass47,
The radio should have included either wiring information or a wiring diagram. One of your power leads should be connected to a 12V, non-switched power source. The other lead should go to a switched power lead ( a power source that is only on when the key is in the "ON" position). A test light is your friend when doing these kind of installs. Good luck, Phatnine11 |
