Hey guys i bought a pioneer AVH - 2350 headunit and some 6.5inch polk audion speakers... i wanted to learn alittle bit but it seems im not that good with electrics


are these for factory tweeters ?


standard toyota headunit plug

BLUE LOOM

BLACK - accessories
RED/BLUE-remote( wire that goes to factory amp to make it work )
RED/WHITE - constant 12v
Orange - headlight wire dont use



YELLOW LOOM

RED- front right
GREEN - front left
BLUE- rear right
WHITE - rear left
Brown - ground
Yellow - mute
Black - dont use






why does the toyota plug have one wire for the speakers and the pioneer has a positive and a
negative for the speakers , do i only connect the positive ?




im not sure were these 3 wires go??????? .. in the owners manual it says the orange / white wire connects to lighting terminal switch ?????? the (Blue/white) wire Connect to system control terminal of the power amp-antenna relay control terminal ( max 300ma 12v DC)
and (Violet/white ) connect the one in which the voltage changes when the gear shift is in the REVERSE position

any help would be much appreciated.. i wanted to give it one more go before i give up and let someone else do it LOL

Umm ok my head is not working great this arvo so I'll try
Look here first http://www.jzx100.co...wiring-diagram/

to understand electronics think of it as water, the electricity has to "flow somewhere" so with speakers you need power from positive to the speaker then out from the speaker to the ground.

Black is mostly always ground so double check that brown wire.

The toyota plug will have 2 wires, a positive and negative for 1 speaker as explained in the link above.

The orange wire on the headunit loom plug needs to go to a wire that controls the headlights. This is to dim the headunit when you turn on your headlights at night.
Dont worry about the blue/white remote system control wire, thats for a powered antenna to make it go up and down.
Also dont worry about the reverse/purple one, its probably for a feature on the headunit you dont really need. (maybe mutes headunit when reversing or activates rear camera or something?)

u use that blue wire if ur running a aftermarket amp to tell it to turn on and/or an electric areial. the reason the toyota harness only has 1 wire for each speaker is cause it runs to a RCA plug in the stock amp, and from the stock amp it runs the + and - to each speaker

Thanks for the info guys .... Hey ray its a series one so i thing the plug is different?? ...... i will try find were that orange wire goes on the toyota plug

MMMMMM thanks Apatho yer i still have the factor amp ...so how do connect the pioneer with + - to the toyota plug with 1 wire

easiest way is prob's to get 2 sets of RCA cables and re-run them? then u dont worry about the speaker wires in the loom at all, u can get them pree cheap from pree much anywhere, id dare say the ones in ur TV/dvd player will work
