I’m stuck. I’ve got my interior torn apart looking for the radio control module. Not under pass side carpet. Not under the drivers side and not in the back. Anyone know where that sucker is?

The radio module is located in the floor of the
passenger footwell (Fig. 1). Pull back the carpet
in passenger footwell to access the BCM shroud
(Fig. 2). Remove the bracket to access the BCM
(Fig. 3). The radio module is located underneath
the bracket that the BCM is attached to.

Thanks Vince. I did find it and like you said, it’s behind the BCM behind plastic. I did cheat. The plastic it’s mounted on is soft. I bent it and pulled the box out. What a pain, but I got it. Thanks again for your help brother……

Well, I still have nothing on my project working. I get hiss out of the front speakers. That’s the only sound in 5 days. I have signal coming out of the blue box. All channels. More than 1 wire has the the same name as in the other harnesses. Like RR three times. I’ve pulled everything apart and run one wire and one connector to the amp at a time. Nothing. I’m to the point that I’ll go back to stock to see if anything still works. Do I have a blown fuse somewhere. Nightmare. I’m so damn stuck.

Are you also using the
PAC APH-GM02 AmpPro Speaker Connection Harness
if so, then most of the labels are not right. You are going to have to send a test tone through each pair to get the location. You may also need to verify you have the right voltage coming out of the gm61. And the last thing, you may also need a relay on the remote output of the gm61.

MB Quart 5 channel 900 watt amp.
AP4-GM61
APH-GM02
I’ve spent another 4 hours or more on this. Plug and play my ***! 1) the black connector with the mostly brown wires. There’s nothing on this in the instructions. One wire say’s RF speaker 2. I’m GUESSING it’s the microphone turn off assembly. Harness V1 16pb.
Harness V1 8P. It has sub, LF, and RF. 2 black connectors. Do I use just this one for the two fronts and the sub only? I don’t need rear speakers.
Harness V1 16PA. This is the big green harness. I’ve been trying to make this work. It says to leave the green connector out if you don’t want the factory amp power anything.
I’ve got the amp kit in and working. I still need to turn the car off and let the box set-up? Speakers are my problem. I’ve no checked them to see if their labeled correctly. I’ve no clue how to do that. YouTube.
Any insight on my problems?

This helps a lot. I have a tone generator coming today. Your labels are crazy. I’ve got sound. The center speaker is 98% of the sound. I don’t have the center speaker hooked up. The RCA isn’t plugged in at the blue box. I’m still looking for whatever I need to do make this work. Just the center speaker alone sounds better than the stock system. Lol.

Hey Vince. Final post. The audio shop owner where I took the 19 called me today. It turns out that the blue box is defective. I guess one or a couple of the RCA connections are grounded out. He ordered a new kit or just the box. Not sure. If it’s a kit, $900 is a bit much for plug and play! Again, thanks for the help. I really appreciate it.
