NOTICE: If you do not feel comfortable with wiring your new source unit,
please see your local Authorized Rockford Fosgate Dealer for installation.
• For safety, disconnect the negative lead from the battery prior to beginning the installation.
1. Install the 16-Pin Power Harness by connecting the corresponding wires to the electrical and audio
system. Solder and heat shrink all connections for a reliable installation. For each connection, cut
a 1" piece of heat shrink tubing and slide over one of the wires. Strip each wire 3/8" then twist
together and solder. Slide the tubing over the connection and shrink the tubing with a hot air gun
until no bare wire is exposed.
2. Connect the BLACK wire to chassis ground. Prepare the chassis ground by scraping any paint from
the metal surface and thoroughly clean the area of all dirt and grease. Strip the end of the wire and
attach a ring connector. Fasten the wire to the chassis using a non-anodized screw and star washer.
3. Connect the YELLOW wire to a source of constant +12V (for retaining memory on user-pro-
grammed functions). Connect the Yellow wire to a constant +12 volt positive source. The source
should always have +12V, even when the ignition is off and the car is not running.
4. Connect the RED wire (Ignition) to a source of switched +12V (is on only when ignition key is in
"accessory" or "run" position). Connect the RED wire to a switched +12 volt positive source. The
switched signal is usually taken from the ACC (accessory) position of the ignition. If the vehicle does
not have an ACC position, connect the wire to the switched ON position of the ignition. The cur-
rent consumption through this wire is negligible.
5. Connect the ORANGE wire to the lighting switch terminal. This will dim the main display by 30%
when the headlights are turned on.
6. Connect the LT. BLUE wire to the "Remote Turn-On" leads of the amplifier(s). This will turn-on
the external amplifiers when the source unit is powered on.
7. Connect the BLUE/RED wire to the "Power Antenna" lead. This will raise a fully automatic anten-
na when the source unit is powered on, but only when the unit is in Tuner Mode.
8. Connect the pink wire for cell phone mute to the wire on the cell phone harness that provides
ground when the phone rings.
9. Connect the B+, GND and Remote Turn on Wires on the 16 pin harness according to the
Installation Reference Sheet.
10. Connect the AUX* to the external audio source (this inserts the audio before the volume control
on the source unit). The input voltage this circuit can accept is 1–3V RMS.
Connect the Speaker Wires (if external amplifiers are not used) to the corresponding speaker leads
by soldering and heat shrinking all connections for a reliable installation. If only one pair of speak-
ers is utilized in the system, use only the FRONT speaker leads and heat shrink the unused REAR
leads to prevent from shorting out. Be sure to maintain speaker polarity. DO NOT chassis ground
any speaker leads as unstable operation may result.
11. Install the Preamp Output Harness (if external amplifiers will be used) by plugging the RCA cables
into the corresponding extension RCAs that feed the input of the amplifiers. Be sure to route the sig-
nal cables away from any high current wires to prevent coupling noise from radiated electrical fields
into the audio signal. The FRONT RCAs connect to the Front speaker's amplifier. The REAR RCAs
connect to the Rear speaker's amplifier. The SUM* RCAs connect to the Subwoofer amplifier.
12. Connect the CD Changer (optional) by plugging the 8-pin DIN cable into the connector located at
the rear of the source unit.
13. Connect the Antenna by plugging the antenna cable into the connector located at the rear of the
source unit. Be sure the antenna is securely grounded to the vehicle for proper radio reception.
