Anyone have wiring diagram for 2000 vette
Hello.....
Whoever had the car before me did all kinds of stuff to the wiring of the stereo. I plugged in this new head unit to the stock harness and the unit doesnt stay on. It powers on if you hit the "display" button or the eject button, but turns off about 3 seconds later. Anyway, all the wires back there are butchered and I need to make sure its not that instead of pointing fingers at the head unit. Ive searched and found posts for this, but all with broken links. Please help me out with this. I just need the stereo wiring diagram. Thanks.

I just posted this in mcgiles question
Here is an excerpt from a post that appears to be long gone
The Bose CD/Cassette head unit can be utilized without the Bose signal conditioner. Bose subwoofer amps and speakers by using the head unit four pre-amp outputs to drive external aftermarket power amplifiers and speaker. Use the Shielded wires or chassis for signal return. DO NOT USE signals Common on C4(13), LT BLU or Common C4(7) YEL. These are the only interface to the Bose signal processor.
The head unit RADIO ON output can be used to switch on external power amplifiers. Be safe and use an inline .5 amp fuse to protect the head unit.
