2007 Ford Expedition, OEM Amp Pin Out

So I picked up an oem sub with amp out of an 07 Expedition with some sort of Audiophile setup thing. Anyway, I’ve tested the subwoofer and it works, what I’m wanting to do is test the amp, but I cannot determine if it’s speaker level inputs or low level.
I also don’t quite know what will happen if I try speaker level when it wants low.. or vice versa. Will it damage the amp? The amps part number is: 7l2t-18c808-AA
Thanks!!

It uses low level input. Do you have the plug with any of the wires on it? Do you have a multimeter?

I do! To both questions, although I have no clue hoe to tell one from the other with a multimeter.

Can you either post a picture of the plug, or tell me the wire colors and which 2 wires are larger than the others?

sub enable violet/red   amp turn on/switched wire, side not this wire maybe only 6 volts. if you run 12 volt to it you may get a loud pop noise every time it turns on
ground black/blue
12 volt + brown/red    battery/constant
sub audio input + violet/green
sub audio input - green/white

Ok so I've gotten a bit further on testing this hardware. So as I mentioned originally I found this OEM amp and 8" DVC sub setup in an '07 Expedition, and I'm testing it on an '09 F150 supercrew. So thanks to Mgoetz74 that pinout he gave me worked perfectly, my issue currently is input levels.

Since I'm just testing this, I didn't want to spend any money on it until I'm confident the speaker and amp are operational as they should be. So with that in mind, I found a simple LOC circuit here: Line Out Convertor circuit diagram

So I'm using a signal feed spliced off one of the rear door speakers and into my DIY LOC breadboard.. I dug through my parts stash and put together a series of resistors adding up to 1100 ohms for R1, and then a single 1k ohms one for R2. This helped clarify the sound MUCH better.. the sub was not clipping like before. But it's still pretty loud when volume is lower than normal.

So understanding that the resistors are lowering the voltage from the head unit, I added a couple more, then a couple more... All totaled I'm at 33k ohms and between 12k and 33k I cannot tell it made any difference. I don't have a trim pot, or any potentiometers to try. And my systems is the factory one so there's no way it's pushing more than maybe 20-25 watts so throwing more resistance I don't feel will help matters.

I do not *believe* that there's any sort of OEM amp in play but I have not removed the console to verify. I'm looking for advice on how to tackle this. Is maybe the amp hosed?

Thanks!

Increase the value of only R1

So I figured it out and it's all my fault. I must have misread the fluke when I checks R2, it should have been 1k, instead it was 100k. Yeah... I know. When I discovered that I also found another stash of resistors so I re-worked the breadboard. I've tried 11k ohms for R1, and 13k ohms.. I think it sounds better at 13k.

So anyway it's all good and for being oem it can pack a punch. Thanks for the help!
