2002 Pontiac Sunfire GT, amp to stock HU

i want to hook up an amp to my stock stereo system in my sunfire. it has the monsoon soundsystem in it. i would like to find a diagram so i know which wire is the remote turn on and such. so if anyone has the diagram can you send it to supercooper88@hotmail.com or post it on here thanks

The pink wire at the amp in the trunk is the remote turn on wire.sparky

ok cool thanks sparkie. you wouldnt happen to have a wiring diagram for it would you cause i might end up putting in my deck anyways

I didn't think the 2002 Monsoon system had a remote turn on lead ? My experience has been that these are databus controlled.Jeff

Just use the same harness as you would for the standard radio. The Monsoon system will accept high level inputs from your new unit just fine. I agree with Jeff, I don't remember an amp turn on either. The amp powers on once it's fed an audio signal.My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.

To clarify this, there are 3 different systems available for these cars. You can have a radio and 6 speakers, or a radio with an amp and speakers ( the amp drives the rear full range speakers and subwoofers - uses dual voice coil 6x9 speakers), or the Monsoon system, which has a radio and amp (amp drives all speakers). The Monsoon system has a radio turn on wire (pink) and the other system uses a speaker level signal to turn the amp on. To tell the difference between the two amplified sytems, check the option code sticker under the spare tire cover. The Monsoon option is U85 and the other amp system is UQ3. I hope that clears up the confusion.sparky

Thanks for clearing that up.My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.

ok cool ill check into wat mine is because i know it says monsoon system on the headunit

oh also does anyone know the code to take out the new factory decks as they have that theiftlock on them

There is no code for your 2002 Sunfire. The radio reads the vehicle serial number from the BCM when it turns on. If the number matches what is programmed into the radio, it will turn on. If the radio hasn't been set-up in the vehicle with a GM Tech II scan tool to learn the VIN, then the radio will lock. You can unplug your radio anytime you need to. All you need to do is re-set the clock afterwards.sparky
