i just installed a radio in my dads truck and i used a wiring harness to be safe and everything, but the thing is that now all the wires are hooked up except orange which is like illumination, but the radio will except a cd but there is no screen its all black all it does is except cd's and eject them other then that it looks like its off what can the problem be? I had this cd player in a previous car and it worked fine i just took it out cause i upgraded my radio.

I think the illumination wire needs to be hooked up. Wouldnt that solve the problem with the screen being all black because its not illuminated?

its a bad ground, , run your ground wire to a bare piece of metal, , like the fire wall.

What kind of truck is it anyways?
