Default URGENT HELP with cd changer/ipod connection

I have all the required cables but I cannot figure out where to connect cd changer cable (CORHAR). I guess there are couple of different combinations, thanks to GM. It is a very sad case!! :nonod:

You might have better luck posting in the Audio forum:

Click 'Forums' --> 'General Corvette Topics' --> 'Audio/Electronics'

The big connector on your CORHAR connects to your GM10-AUX. The small connector connects to a connector that was tucked under in the lower right hand corner of the fuse compartment in the passenger side foot well.

I have an iPOD in my Z06, hang in there, it really is nice.
:cheers:

If I rember correctly, the CD changer harness connects to two plugs in the passenger footwell access area. One connector is easy to find, the other is under the carpeting - taped to another wiring harness (yellow tape I believe); and a bitch to get to.

At the bottom of the footwell access cavity; pull up on the carpeting at the bottom of the opening and look backwards underneath the carpeting - towars the rear of the car.

.

BTW, Jim... that's some nice sailplanes you have. :yesnod:

Mike is correct, it is two small connectors and one is quite hidden.

Here is a few pictures that I just went out and snapped that may help you out a bit.


The appropriate finger is pointing to the hidden cable, I had to dig it out from underneath the carpeting in the lower corner. The other connector is attached to the side of the fuse box with some sort of fastener.



HINT: if it doesn't work the first time you get it all together, pull apart and clean the connectors and reconnect, I think they got dirty over time.
