coroboto Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 I am having the same problem finding the 90 Legacy stereo info. That link goes to nowhere now. I need to know what the wires in the harness are for so I can install my stereo...I am tired of paying people to do my stereo so I am learning now. Thanks, Cory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobywagon Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times. DO NOT CUT THE HARNESS AND TRY TO HARDWIRE YOUR STEREO. Just makes the job harder down the line. Find the correct harness and the whole thing becomes plug & play. There are 3 good lookup tools available. bestkits.com American International Metra Go find the appropriate harness for your car and take the part number to your local stereo shop. They'll likely have it in stock. I have several of the Metra harnesses in stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coroboto Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 "If I have said it once I have said it a thousand times...." Are you my dad. Thanks to you for the advice, but seriously what is the difference? I still have to butt connect and clip the same amount of wires? It is no easier to do that that just hard-wire it in. The link is down I need to trouble shoot some lack of sound that is coming out of my (or should I say not coming out of my car) speaker before I install the newer aftermarket deck. I would very much like it if someone had a resource for this info. Peace and thanks, Cory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobywagon Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 The wiring harness you want will save you time and headache. Yes, you have to butt connect a bunch of wires. But all you have to do is go through and match them up color for color and it will work, assuming that the rest of the system is functional. This will also tend to get you a cleaner, tidier install. As for troubleshooting...The dash is NOT the place to try troubleshooting a no audio condition. Go to each speaker. Inspect it visually and then put a noise make to it and see if it makes noise. If it is not beat up and makes noise with a noise maker, then the speaker is good. From a troubleshooting standpoint, that leaves the factory speaker wiring and the stereo itself. Since you're replacing the stereo anyway, just put the new stereo in and see if you get music out of the suspect speakers. If you do, then you have your answer. If you don't, you STILL have your answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
