I use about 3 or 4 wiring databases that are available on the internet. It seems that all wiring software on the market don't have a common color for certain vehicles and when it comes down to doing an install, you don't want to be stuck with a single diagram and it's wrong ! posted_image VERY FRUSTRATING. Even with the available information, it seems that car manufacturer's are always making cars that have different colored wires for the same vehicle of the same model and year. We are located in Canada so some of the colors that we have on the software database are not even close to what the vehicle has, so we end up having to test all wires ( a good practice to do at any rate !! ). Hope this helps .
