Upgrading from boxster radio ( cdr-220 ) to Sony
Bill Lapp replied to Samar777's topic in 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S)
Hello - I am struggling with connecting my replacement stereo for my CDR-220 in my 2001 Porsche 911 Carrera 4. I have looked at tons of forums and every ones setup seems slightly different. I don't believe I have an amp, just the CD Changer. I have included a picture of the trunk below. I am using the Metra 70-1787 Harness. The connectors I have show ---- the Porsche Yellow Green and Blue connectors going into Connector C on the CDR-220 ---- nothing in Connector B on the CDR-220 ---- the Porsche black connector into Connector A on the CDR-220 I have plugged the color connectors into the Metra's Single Red connector I plugged the black connector into the section of the Metra's Black connector where the colored wires are. Metra Black connector wires ---- All gray/white wires are unused? (or am I supposed to connect one of the colored connectors to this for hard wired speakers? ---- Black matched to Pin 8 Ground ----> Connected to Black ground on Pioneer? ---- Yellow matches to Pin 7 Ignition? ---> Connect to Pioneer Ignition ---- Orange matches to Pin 6 Lumination? Is this unused for the Pioneer? ---- Red matches to Pin 4 Constant 12v ---> Connect to Pioneer Ignition Metra Red connector ---- RCA plugs connect ---> Connect to the back of the Pioneer and their RCA openings ---- WHAT DOES THE BLUE WIRE CONNECT TO? It seems to infer it has to plug to something to turn the amp on? The behavior I see right now with the Metra blue wire unconnected and the orange wire unconnected is that the radio will turn on and off as expected and operate however I get no sound :( I am assuming either the Metra blue wire or Orange has to connect to something? Or possibly I need to not use the RCA wires and plug one of the color connectors into the black Metra connector and use the gray wires to hard wire speakers?
