Hello all, I own a 2006 Chrysler 300 and just bought a pioneer avic-n2. The only wire that I dont know where it is suppose to be connected is the Pick Car speed signal input wire.... Any help guys? I have no idea where I should look. Can you guys give me a color for the wire and the rough location of it? spending this much money i really would like to connect it instead of not....

Nother thing guys, what if I dont plug this wire? is it just for accuracy of GPS? will the vehicle dynamics screen still work?

it is absolutely necessary for you to connect this wire if you want your GPS to work. it will NOT work with this wire not connected. also, your vehicle dynamics screen will not work without this wire (because isnt one of the things on the dynamics screen a speedometer?)

this is wire is how your car knows how fast its traveling. if you dont use this wire on your GPS then the little arrow on your monitor will not move on the screen as your car moves (trust me, i just tried it last week)
