According to the Bentley service manual, the color codes of the wires at the
rear amplifier are:
Inputs:
Red/Blue = +12v
Yellow/Red = +12v switched from radio
Brown = Ground
Red = Left channel +
Black = Left channel -
Black/White = Right channel -
Blue = Right channel +
Outputs:
Black/Blue = Left woofer +
Red/Green = Left -
Red/Yellow = Left tweeter +
Blue/Yellow = Right tweeter +
Black/Yellow = Right -
Blue/Green = Right woofer +
The color codes for the wires on my late '86 car are consistent with the
color codes for the '87,'88 cars. The Bentley does not show the Duo-sound
unit for the '86 5ktq.
The color codes for '87,'88 5ktq are:
Inputs:
Red = +12v (goes directly to amp and power antenna)
Brown = Ground
White = Switched 12v from radio
Black/white = Right channel - (also goes to headphone unit)
Black = Left channel - (also goes to headphone unit)
Blue = Right channel + (to headphone unit) goes to amp as Blue/Red
Red = Left channel + (to headphone unit) goes to amp as Red/Green
Note: Right and Left channel - are tied together inside the headphone unit
Outputs:
Black/White = Right -
Blue/Yellow = Right woofer +
Blue/Green = Right tweeter +
Red/Green = Left -
Red/Yellow = Left woofer +
Black = Left tweeter +
The connectors accept standard 1/4" spade lug crimp connectors. The amp is a
pain to remove since one of the nuts is hard to reach. I replaced the rear
speakers with a pair of 6x9's which I screwed to the deck under the existing
holes.
