Hi guys, have searched high and low for hours as yet unable to locate a color code wiring diagram for my stereo.

I have currently worked out black/ ground black/blue = Constant 12V. Unable to locate accessories assume will have to go of the cig lighter but will still need al speakers, antenna plus minus for the volume switches etc.

Any help greatly appreciated.

There is not a switched wire. You will have to use cig lighter if it is switched.

That is not the same as the plug I posted. That looks a lot like a. Panasonic AKA Matsushita plug. Does the radio have either one of those names on the label? Or Clarion?

Did you look at that first link I posted? It tells you how to find the wires.
