95 eclipse gs extra stereo wire blue

[Qzach]

Wired up my stereo and there's an extra wire it's blue and my stereo doesn't have another wire I was wondering ifnit has anything to do with the illumination lights because when my stereo is on all interior illumination lights are on and when it's off they are off. If somebody could get me a color code for where all the wires go that would be cool

Post a picture, I know the area in indy got family in brownsburg, but blue wire could be anything.

Isn't the blue wire supposed to be used for an amp.. Been a while since I have had a sound system but I think it's called the remote wire.

Yea Grothe is correct. the extra blue is for an amp turn on signal. The Orange wire is typically the dimmer wire. I am sure you can easily google a wire schematic of the stock stereo wiring.

Bamm Onlt blue wired ive ever used for a stereo is the remote wire which is blue.I think it sends a signal to the amp when the deck is turned on,turning on the amp.

I think your right it's been a while since I've done audio too

So my dash lights are probably staying on because the dimmer switch is bad? That seems to be what I've seen in the research I've Ben doin

Sounds like it find another if you had a 1g I keep those in stock.

Good to see I can remember some things . As for the illumination issues, I think my alpine had the ID of each wire on top of it. Could always start there, if not as someone else said just Google the schematic.

The blue wire on the head unit is for an acc. Like an amp.

The black and yellow wire on the stock radio harness plug is your interior light system. I can remember for sure but I think the adaptor harness turns it into an orange wire

Are you using the adapter that plugs straight into the stock plug or are you trying to match wires? I can help either way I just need to know which route you are taking.

The 3 wires are the ones I am not using on the adaptor plug. My head unit does have them. The blue wire from the head unit is tied to my amp. So I don't need the blue one on the adaptor harness

yes the blue wire is a +12v but its low amperage, only to tell the amp to turn on.

dome lights don't work in my 95 eclipse some wires aren't hooked up but the dash turns on and the lights by the foot panels turn on just not the dome
(95 eclipse rs manual)with kenwood stereo been trying to figure this out for 2 years
