What are these wires?
I'm attempting to replace the cassette player with a cd player. I found a harness not connected to anything along with these 4 wires, again not connected. What do the lables mean?http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...-29-18_653.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...-29-31_440.jpg

Those were inside my console too and I have no idea either. I do appreciate the wires being labeled though.

Interesting. Now I have a strange problem. All I did was cut the red and black wires off the stock harness and wire them to my new harness for the CD player. Nothing. No voltage or anything. Then I wire them back to the stock connector and hook plug the factory tape deck, nothing. Completely dead.
Know where there is a fuse I can check? I looked at the fuses under the dash, and all are good. The tape deck worked right before I unplugged it! This is frustrating, I don't even know where to start since I'm not even sure what happened. Steve |
Re: What are these wires?
When I wired my new cd player I just probed to find a constant hot and keyed hot wire. It takes awhile but I know it's right.

Those wires look like your speaker wires. Bulkhead port and starboard.

Re: What are these wires?
I ran into the same issue when I wired my stereo. My 1996 Shabah only had four factory speakers as well. I am guessing that what your looking at is another OEM speaker harness for those Mariah models with more than four speakers. My theory is that to keep production costs down,Mariah used universal wiring harnesses for all their boat. But I could be wrong and this post was just a waste of time.

Re: What are these wires?
I saw those extra speaker wire labels too. The previoud owner had them hooked up in series with the other speaker wire. I don't know where they go because I don't have any speakers in the bow or aft. Perhaps it is pre-wired for future installation. I haven't looked yet because it won't get above 60 degrees here in Wisconsin and we have a freeze warning tonight in Madison.
I have a trip with the boys planned for June 11th to Fox Lake (just north of Chicago). I hope we break 70 by then. I can't wait to retire and move to Colorado or Florida. Danny |
