OMG Frustrated Car Audio
Ok guys I'm new here and have been searching and cant find anything. I just bought my 02 TL-P and the idiots thought the radio was fucked so instead of checking the fuse on the passenger side which was indeed the problem they butchered the harness and i put it back together and everything works but the only way i can hear anything is if i turn the radio all the way up and at that point i can just barely hear the radio and the front driver speaker doesn't work but i cant see why there would be problem with it. The second small harness which im guessing is for the amp isn't hooked up i cant find the oem diagram to figure out which wires go where. If i can i'd like to keep the stock system for a while til i get my aftermarket shit together down the road. Someone please help if this is already posted somewhere please forgive my ignorance. Thanx guys!!!

Check the wiring again. Maybe a ground or the dimmer wire ???

I have doubled checked the wiring of the harness and everything looks to be correct. But does the secondary smaller harness that also plugs into the back of the radio have anything to do with it or is that just the Bose harness im not too familiar with the factory amp wiring myself. Nor could I find the way it is supposed to be wired so individually wrapped those few wires on that harness.

If something isnt hooked up that is your problem. Did you replace the radio, or is it your stock HU.
The Stock HU IS the amp in the TL (except for the sub). The 2nd harness is the signal that leaves the hu that goes to the EQ, then it goes back into the HU to be amplified then back out to the speakers.

The 14 pin connector is what connects to the EQ, the other end which is missing connects to the radio (and its missing some wires) Id bring it back to who ever did that hack job and make them fix it.

Do you have something like this for 2006 MDX Stock 6CD Radio?
