Wire Colours

[JammyBStard]

Hi
New Vectra this morning, And new to the Forum Too.

Car arrived at nine this morning and by ten I had it in bits looking for the wires to the speakers in the back doors so I can tap them for a sub.

I've found them in the trunking that runs along the sills but there is a bunch of about half a dozen wires that run into the bulkhead and then into the doors. can anyone tell me the colours of the two wires that feed the speaker?

Also, while we're on, has anyone ever retrofitted and aux input to the CD30?

Cheers
J

infact, if anyone has copy of the wiring scems for the current Vectra, I would love a copy!

the speaker wires are two twisted together they will be the same colour with one wire haveing a black line through it hope this helps

can high and low are twisted together as well , DONT wire into those , big bills may appear , check wire colours at the back of the audio unit , infact thats the easiest place to go from . aux input ? unless its on the pin map on the unit , speak to your dealer , aux inputs are available for the new 2008 spec headunits .

Front speaker wire colours:
Left = Yellow and Brown/Yellow
Right = Blue and Brown/Blue

Rear speaker wire colours:
Left = Green and Brown/Green
Right = White and Brown/White

FYI, dealers use a database called TIS2000 that contains the wiring diagrams. As far as I know there are no hardcopy schematics available.

Note: don't hook anything other than a CAN transceiver to Green and White twisted pairs - they're the CAN wires and won't appreciate having speakers or amplifiers hooked up to them!

Nice one!

I thought the TIS2000 was programing sofware? does it have the Schems too?

[JammyBStard]

What would be the latest version of the TIS2000?

Programming, labour times, service documentation, schematics...

Dunno, I'm not a dealer
