I need some help I am trying to install the sony car cd player that was removed from our old car into a suzuki vitara, I have sorted all the speaker cables ok but on the cd player their is a multi plug with other cables how do the sony colour codes work? also there seems to be a small black box, some sort of small transformer I think, with an inline fuse so I guess the live and a black wire? also another inline fuse? why 2 the unit has a 10 cd multi changer but those connections are ok. The wirng on the vitara has really been mutilated over the years so need help identifying those colour codes as well Many thanks

The guy above is correct, for the wire colours, but if you go to a good shop like Halfords you can buy a wire connector multi plug that fits your car's multi plug exactly and the wires are the same colour as your radio ( standard ) you join them up neatly and the you can just plug the radio in , in one simple push that way you don't go mad trying to twist the wires together when upside down under the dashboard.

best thing to do is get the adapter plug at walmart, ALL aftermarket cd players have the same scheme, yellow for constant on, to keep your clock and stations set, red with fuse holder for ACC blue for automatic antenna and depending on how many speakers it's made for the harness may have a few extra, it's worth the 12 bucks to plug in to your existing radio plug, that way if you wreck it or sell it your can put your old crap back in.

red, white, and blue, good luck!
