I have a 2005 mustang with the standard OEM radio installed, 4 speakers no subs or amp, I tried to install a new head unit, but when I removed the old unit I found out that the old OEM radio has 2 connectors plugged in the back of the radio, one is the big harness and the other one is a little one with 2 wires connected to it. I ordered the wiring harness and it is just one connector for the after market radio, my question is What is the other connector for? It has 2 wires connected to the end of the plug but I can not figure out what's is for.
I ended connecting the after market radio, with its respective wiring harness, everything works perfectly but only worry is that plug that it is not connected to anything. Some help please?

it could be a dimmer wire for when you turn on your headlights the radio would dim with the dash lights, or it is specifically used on the factory unit and what ever function it it won't work on an aftermarket stereo. I wouldnt worry about it.

Because they are assuming that you are running the stock block and tranny which are thought to be pushing it at the 5-600hp point. I'm not a disbeliever, with enough research and money you could put 900hp in anything. Besides who cares what "they" on the internet think, you know it when you fire it up. As for the driving part of it, with the proper gearing even a car with that much hp can be a kitten on the street. It's when you start throwing in more aggressive gear ratios and suspension that you get a 900hp car that feels like a 900hp car.

I'm not certain, but usually when I see a 2-pin harness in a Ford it's for external controls. Do you have a steering wheel control or some other type of radio control on the dash or console?
