If one (ME) wanted to test a stock radio that I got with my car, how would I do that WITHOUT hooking it up in the car? I guess I am asking how to bench test it. What wires go where? Thanks!
Well, first off you would make sure that the convector is properly connected to the radio and that speakers [8-10 ohm impedence, low wattage] are connected to the two pairs of green/black wires (one set has light green, the other dark green...if I remember correctly). Then, you need to plug in an antenna to the pin connector on the right-rear (as you are facing the dial) and supply power and ground to the unit via the orange/yellow/black connector. Then you turn it on and tune it in!
