I'm trying to install a pioneer head unit into my '95 civic. The battery wire on my head unit is yellow and is supposed to connect to the blue wire w/ white stripe that is coming from dash. The only problem is that there is no blue wire w/ white stripe, there's a white wire w/ a blue stripe. I hooked these two wires together and went back through and checked all the others but it still won't turn on. Is there anything that you know of that i should do.
did you buy a connector for it? one that plugs right into the factory harness?
if you did..it should be more than simple to hook it up.
look at the harness box...and it says which wire is which....then look on the radios instrucion booklet for what wire is which and match them up...

I bet that the 7.5 amp fuse in the engine compartement fuse box is blowed. because u did it properly WHITE/ blue to yellow
this head unit feed it's amp with the yellow wire result u are better to run this wire directly under dash with the proper fuse (see your booklet if fuse have been remove from original h/u) hook it to the big white wire comming from ignition column this one is constant 12 volt
tell me if i am right
glad to help u
Also you have to disconnect the neg wire on the battery b4 you even mess with any electrical work.

Sure u are right to say disconect the battery first but usually on a civic under steering u may disconect the connector from the fuse box and u are unpowered at this time much easier to test with power.....
