97 mirage wire colors

myk3 · #1 03-20-2006, 11:12 AM

the previous owner of my 97 mirage ls cut up the harness... does anyone know the wire colors so i can install my new aftermarket cd player? (the speaker wires may have been changed, but i can always trace those back to the speakers... i basically just need to know the power, and ignition(?) wires....) thanks

im kinda new to this

Do a Google on automotive circuit tester. Lots of pictures so you'll know what it looks like in the store.
