In nearly every modern vehicle the answer is no. However, there could be some exceptions to this depending upon the vehicle. Pioneer receiver's are designed this way so you don't accidentally leave the in-dash receiver switched on when you exit your vehicle. And when you come back to the vehicle, the battery is dead.

Yes. That's the idea. The Blue/White System Remote wire on the back of the DEH-S4010BT can connect to the System Control terminal on the Pioneer GM-D8601. This will switch the amplifier on, when the in-dash receiver is on, and it will switch the amplifier off when the in-dash receiver is off. If you are also trying to switch on several other external devices via the Blue/White System Remote wire, you may need an external relay to operate the entire system.

Amp Error means the receiver is in protection mode. If you are seeing AMP ERROR on the in-dash receiver screen this almost always means exposed speaker wires are touching each other or touching metal in the vehicle. Check the White and White/Black, the Gray and Gray/Black, the Green and Green/Black and the Purple and Purple/Black wires at the back of the in-dash receiver. You can see them here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/obhigLJj0N2qpZs.html If the speaker leads have exposed wire, properly terminate the wire so there is no exposed wire. If the speaker wires are not touching each other or metal behind the dash, check the speaker locations in your vehicle. If a speaker terminal is touching metal in a door, or some other area you may see AMP ERROR on the in-dash receiver. Adding an amplifier is a great idea, however, please note: Until you figure out what is causing the amp error, it will continue to display.

Not just a KE but a KE and QR. That is old school. I'll guess it's from about 1990 or so. The video above will not help at all. You're going back about 30 years or so, but this is what I remember. The Red had a fuse holder. This was the ignition wire. There was no constant power wire to hold the clock and radio stations settings because KE-2303QR was a pull out type of radio. Press the button on the front edge and the handle will pop up. Pull the handle to remove the radio chassis from the mounting cage. All memory was held with a battery inside the removable chassis. I'm sure the battery needs to be replaced 30 years later. One ground wire needs to be connected to the back of the mounting cage and the other was the system ground as well as the speaker ground. KE means this was a low powered radio and all 4 speakers shared one common ground. Taken out of the box, the Black ground had a spade connection. The single Speaker ground had 4 separate bullet connectors. Green Left Front Positive. Gray Right Front Positive. Green Red Left Rear Positive. Gray Red Right Rear Positive.

Wow, that's an old one. The Pioneer DEH-1900MP was produced back in 2005-2006. The screen flashing likely means a wiring problem. The first possible issue is with the ground wire. Check to be sure the Black wire has a good connection to metal in the body or frame of the vehicle. Another possibility is speaker wires touching each other or metal in the vehicle. I recommend to check the back of the receiver to be sure no speaker wires are exposed and touching one another, or metal. Also check the speaker locations to see that the speaker terminals are not touching metal in the door or rear deck or other are in the vehicle. It's also possible that after 15 years, this product needs to be serviced. You can find more videos on Pioneer's KZfaq Channel here: kzfaq.info

The Pioneer AVH-1300NEX was manufactured back in 2017. It sounds like you may have blown a fuse in the vehicle, or on the in-dash receiver, or both, during the installation. For any installation, I recommend to disconnect the vehicle's battery negative terminal before working with wiring. I recommend to check the fuse panel in the vehicle, and the 10 amp fuse on the back of the receiver. If a fuse is blown, you did something wrong.

My wire harness ground that is

That should work no troubles.

If you are using an aftermarket wire harness adapter designed for your particular vehicle that offers matching wire colors to the Pioneer wire harness, you should be able to join the two black wires together. One black wire from the Pioneer harness and, one black wire from the aftermarket wire harness adapter joined together. That should be all you need to do. Another option would be to connect the Pioneer wire harness black wire to metal in the body or fame of the vehicle. If that case you should safely terminate the black wire from the aftermarket wire harness adapter. It's not a good idea to leave bare wires in the dash. You can find a full playlist of How To videos from Pioneer about audio receivers here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qtVimLt9tajSen0.html and you can find more videos on Pioneer's KZfaq Channel here: kzfaq.info

If you found the Black wire, and you found the Yellow wire, the only wire remaining that is remotely close to red must be the red wire.

The Pioneer wire harness system is not designed to match the colors of any wires in any given vehicle. This video describes the function of Any Given Wire by its color code in the Pioneer wire harness. You must connect the wire harness to the proper wires in the vehicle. This is not based on the color of the vehicle wires.

@@deckerdotto6035 HI! Thanks on fast reply! I was talking about wires on radio. Direct output wires that go to ISO connector in car. They have weird readings on multimeter. Only wihite wire in upper row gives me positive, others in upper row negative. To bad I can't send you picture so you can see what I mean.

The speaker outputs should be read in AC. When the in-dash receiver is switched on and playing music, the speaker wire outputs (Gray and Gray/Black, White and White/Black, Purple and Purple/Black, Green and Green/Black) should read AC output. The designation of positive and negative on the speaker output wire is only to ensure correct phase polarity for the speaker.

If you have an external amplifier, you can use the Blue/White wire to switch it on and off with the in-dash receiver as seen here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/obhigLJj0N2qpZs.html Your amplifier may need power directly from the vehicle battery and a proper ground connection as well. You can find more videos on Pioneer's You Tube Channel here: kzfaq.info

The red wire and the yellow wire are the keys to your question. The red wire should be hooked up to ignition. The yellow wire should be hooked up to constant power. This keeps the radios clock and radio station presets when the system is not switched on. If you put the yellow wire and the red wire to ignition it will power on with the ignition but will not save the clock or the radio stations. It will not use any power when it's off.

Please note: the wire colors on the Pioneer wire harness are not meant to match up to any particular make, model, or year of vehicle. Does your 1999 JBL enhanced system have external amplifiers included with the system? Are the amplifiers switching on? Are you routing signal from the new in-dash receiver to the amplifiers? If you're not sure what you are doing, you may want to consider going to a car stereo shop for installation assistance. You can find more videos from Pioneer here: kzfaq.info

What is the model number of your Pioneer in-dash receiver? Please be more specific with your question. What is your setup? If your clock and radio stations reset each time you start your vehicle, the in-dash receiver may have an improper connection for the Yellow Wire. The Yellow Wire must have constant power from the vehicle. This means if the vehicle is switched on or switched off, the yellow wire should measure at ~12 volts. The Red Wire is for accessory. You can view the red wire as the receiver’s on/off switch. The red wire should measure ~ 12 volts only when the vehicle is switched on. ---Do not connect the Red Wire and Yellow Wire together. --- Pioneer in-dash receivers are designed to work with the Pioneer ND-BC8 backup camera. I don’t know about the operation of other cameras. Be sure to plug the Brown camera output RCA into the Brown RCA Input on the back of the Pioneer in dash receiver. The Pioneer ND-BC8 camera needs power and ground to operate. The camera should always have power when the vehicle is switched on. And the camera should power off when the vehicle is switched off. This is very similar to the way the Red Accessory wire works on a Pioneer in-dash receiver. Just because the camera has power does not mean you are viewing the camera window on the in-dash receiver. The receiver’s violet/white wire is used to let the in-dash receiver know that the vehicle is in it’s reverse gear and, to automatically open the backup camera window on the receiver screen. Do not connect the violet/White wire to the camera. When you put the vehicle in it’s reverse gear, the violet/White wire should sense a change in voltage. This automatically opens the camera window on the in-dash receiver. And closes the camera window, when the vehicle is taken out of it’s reverse gear. One possibly connection for the violet/White Reverse Gear wire is the vehicle’s backup lamp terminal. You can find more videos on Pioneer's KZfaq Channel here: kzfaq.info

The Blue wire with White stripe is used as an on/off switch for external devices connected to the in-dash receiver, such as external amplifiers or a power antenna. If you don't have any external devices that need to be switched on and off with the in-dash receiver, then you don't need to connect the Blue/White wire to anything. Just properly terminate the wire so it does not come into contact with other wires or metal in the vehicle. You can find more videos on Pioneer's KZfaq Channel here: kzfaq.info

This video describes the function of each colored wire in the Pioneer wire harness system. The Pioneer wire harness included in the box with the in-dash receiver is not designed to match the wire colors of any OEM factory Make, Model, or Year vehicle wire harness. Different vehicle wire harnesses may use any combination of colors. Any color match with the Pioneer wire harness is purely coincidental. I recommend the use of a wire harness adapter designed to fit your particular vehicle. The wire harness adapter will then color match to the included Pioneer wire harness. This isn't absolutely necessary, but it makes installation easier and faster. If you choose to get a wire harness adapter, be sure to get one the is designed for your particular vehicle make, model, and year.

It would be great if your car had the same plug as the one on the back of the Pioneer receiver. Best of luck with that. I strongly recommend that you take the existing radio out of the vehicle, and compare the connectors in the vehicle to the plug on the back of the Pioneer receiver. In nearly every vehicle ever made, these plugs will not match up. That's where a part like this is used: metraonline.com/part/71-2106 In nearly every Pioneer car stereo installation, you'll need to join the wires from the in-dash receiver to the vehicle in one way or another.

The Pioneer DEH-80PRS was first manufactured back in 2010 and it works a little differently than any of the more modern Pioneer receivers in network mode. The Pioneer DEH-80PRS uses the Rear Output RCA and Rear Output Speaker Level as the High Range output in Network Mode. And the Front Output RCA and Front Output Speaker Level as the Mid-Range output in Network Mode. This means Green and Purple speaker wires are the Rear or High output. And the White and Gray speaker wires are the Front or midrange output. This is different than other modern Pioneer in-dash receivers. This is clearly noted in the DEH-80PRS installation manual. You can find it here: www.pioneerelectronics.com/StaticFiles/Manuals/Car/DEH-80PRS_InstallationManual072616.pdf The RCA outputs are from the top of the unit to the bottom, Rear/High, Front/Mid, and Sub/Low. Also, please be sure to choose a Crossover Point and Slope for the midrange outputs both HPF and LPF. No matter what crossover point you set, if you choose a slope of Zero, you have effectively made this output a pass through with no crossover at all.

You can find the installation manual for the Pioneer DEH-80PRS here: www.pioneerelectronics.com/StaticFiles/Manuals/Car/DEH-80PRS_InstallationManual072616.pdf This topic is covered in some detail. Please read it. The RCA input on the back of the Pioneer DEH-80PRS is simply a 2nd AUX input. It can use low level RCA input from an external device. Or it can use High Level speaker input from an external device. Depending upon what type of input you are going to use, set the switch accordingly. If you are not going to use the 2nd AUX input, it does not matter where you set the switch. The DEH-80PRS will not automatically adjust to the type of signal and may be overloaded with a high level input if you set the switch to low level input. If you are planning to play music from an external device through the 2nd AUX input, be sure to balance the volume output from the music player with the input on the DEH-80PRS to avoid a distorted input signal.

@@Havii_trys_everything Are you certain that the vehicle's front speakers were working before you installed the new in-dash receiver? Please be sure the receiver's Fader control is set to the middle. You can lean more about the fader control in this How to video from Pioneer: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o8t1es-KxNiReXk.html If this does not correct the issue, I recommend to do a system reset. You can learn more about it in this How To video from Pioneer: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mJymjNGYqbTZe2g.html If this does not correct the issue, you may need to test the front speakers. You know the rear speakers are working. Just as a test, you can disconnect the in-dash receiver's rear speaker outputs, and reconnect them to the front speakers. Are the front speakers now working? If the rear speaker outputs work on the rear speakers, but not on the front speakers, you know the issue is not the in-dash receiver.

I don't know what model of in dash receiver you have, but you can check out this video for more information on changing the rear speaker outputs from Full Range to Subwoofer output. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ea2inJppzuC0qnU.html

Deckerd Otto hey thanks a lot for the quick reply. I actually found one of your videos for the same. I love pioneer products man.

You have it wired wrong. The Red wire should have power only when the vehicle is switched on. The Yellow wire should have power at all times, even when the vehicle is switched off. If you don't know what you are doing I recommend going to a car stereo shop for installation help.

oh well i got it fix, i just connected to a fuse with a piggy back. constant 12v but now when i turn the car off and key out of the ing. the radio stays on HAHA

You have the RED wire in the wrong place and you are going to kill the cars battery. The RED wire should have power only when the vehicle is switched on. I recommend going to a car stereo shop for help.

usually its as simple as swap the red and yellow wire but check outputs first if your unsure

When you see the amp error message, the first thing to look at is the speaker wire connections. I recommend to carefully check all 8 of the speaker output wires at the back of the receiver. White, Gray, Green, Purple and the black stripe matching colors. If any of them are touching one another or metal in the vehicle, you may see amp error on the receiver. Also check the speaker locations in the vehicle. Doors, back deck, dash etc... If any of the speaker terminals are touching metal in the vehicle you may see amp error displayed. If the speaker outputs are all connected or terminated properly, the Blue/white wire may be the issue. If you are attempting to operate more than 1 or 2 external devices, you may need to use a 12v relay instead of a direct connection to the external devices with the Blue/White wire.

Most of our units have a wired remote port on the back. This is where you would connect a steering wheel control adapter.

Some Pioneer receivers have a Pink wire on the wire harness. The Pink wire is the Car Speed Signal Input. This may also be known as the VSS or Vehicle Speed Sense wire. This gives the in-dash receiver direct information from the vehicle about speed and is not dependent upon GPS. I strongly recommend to properly connect the Pink wire to the vehicle. Navigation software in Apple CarPlay and Android Auto function with greater reliability and accuracy when the Pink wire is properly connected to the vehicle.

The colors on the Pioneer wire harness are not designed to match up to any make, model, or year of wiring in any vehicle. If you are looking for a way to plug into your existing vehicle wire harness I recommend buying a car stereo install wire harness made to fit your specific vehicle. Many are available. Here is one possibility: metraonline.com/parts/MET-TURBOW You can find more videos on Pioneer's You Tube Channel here: kzfaq.info

I recommend taking your vehicle to your local Pioneer Authorized dealer for installation help. Do you have the AM/FM antenna from the vehicle connected to the Pioneer in-dash receiver? Are the speakers functioning properly? What model number of Pioneer receiver do you have? You can find more videos on Pioneer's KZfaq Channel here: kzfaq.info

I don't know how to explain this any more clearly than what is heard in this video : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/obhigLJj0N2qpZs.html

If your clock and radio stations reset each time you start your vehicle your in-dash receiver may have an improper connection for the Yellow Wire. The Yellow Wire must have constant power from the vehicle. Even when the vehicle is switched off. The Red Wire is for accessory and is sort of like the on/off switch for the in-dash receiver. Red should only have power when the vehicle is switched on. Do not connect the Red Wire and Yellow Wire together. Please take a look at this video for more information on wiring your Pioneer in-dash receiver: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/obhigLJj0N2qpZs.html You can find more videos on Pioneer's KZfaq Channel here: kzfaq.info

Please be more specific with your question.

What is the model number of your Pioneer in-dash receiver?

@@pioneerelectronics Mvh-s512Bs all the wiring is correct I use it for bluetooth music from my android phone

Are you using the Pioneer Smart Sync app to adjust the EQ? And are you adjusting the EQ one on particular music source? And then checking the EQ setting on the same music source? Or on a different music source?

No. Not and expect any real performance from the subwoofers. You can connect one small subwoofer, 8 inch, or 20 cm to the rear output of the in-dash receiver. It works very nicely with one small subwoofer. If you want to use more than one small subwoofer or If you are looking for big performance you'll need to use an external amplifier.

It's possible that you have the wrong wire harness for the DEH-X8500BT. Check out this video for more information on the Pioneer wire harness you are describing. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y8h2Ztir38e4Y2Q.html The Pink wire is for VSS or vehicle speed sense.

Deckerd Otto Hello I bought brand new with box and these wires left unconected.... =)

The video above show wire harness color codes for Pioneer in dash receivers only. The Pioneer color codes are not meant to match up to any given auto maker color codes. Every auto maker uses different color codes for different vehicles, and years. I recommend buying a wire harness kit for your particular vehicle. If you don't understand what you are doing, please go to a car stereo shop for installation.

john boe might have a built in amp

As of 2020 March the yellow wire and the black wire are approximately 16 gauge. All others are about 18. You can find more videos on Pioneer's You Tube Channel here: kzfaq.info

The Yellow Wire and Red Wire are both required to power up the in-dash receiver. You can see it here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/obhigLJj0N2qpZs.html The Black ground wire is also required to operate the in-dash receiver. When installed in a vehicle, do not connect the Red Wire, and Yellow Wire together. If you don't understand what you are doing I recommend to take your vehicle to a qualified Car Stereo shop for help with installation.
