88 760 GLE Wiring Schematic needed for radio replacement

Post by PeterboroughGLE »

I have an 88 760 GLE, and am replacing the factory Tuner/Cassette with a Sony CDX-L510X Tuner/CD. Unfortunately, any searches that I have done to find the wiring schema have been totally off. I am hoping that someone out there has already solved this problem and kept notes... or actually has a schema at hand.[/list]

Here are the wire colours and positions to the connector:

2: Gray-Red
3: White
4: Grey
5: Orange & Yellow (2 Wires)
6&7: Yellow-White
8: Brown-Black
9: Green-Black
10: Black
11: Yellow-Black
12: Red

14:

The wire mapping from the head unit to the connector:
1: Red/White
2: Gray/Red
3: White
4: Gray
5: Yellow
6: Yellow/White
7: Green
8: Blue
9: Green/Brown
10: Black

This might be easier to answer... I hope... :? :?

First off, props to the Install Doctor and all who responded to my question.

From the Install Doctor site, I was able to get most of the wiring information. In fact Alpine (The makers of the unit) pretty much were using ISO colors with a few exceptions of course.

So, by cutting off the connector attached to the Head, I've now created my own harness which fits into the adapter socket.
For all that come after me looking for the same damn information, The mapping for an 88 760 GLE is as follows:
1: Red/White LEFT FRONT -
2: Gray/Red RIGHT FRONT -
3: White LEFT FRONT +
4: Gray RIGHT FRONT +
5: Yellow RIGHT REAR +
6: Yellow/White RIGHT REAR -
7: Green LEFT REAR +
8: Blue ANTENNA
9: Green/Brown LEFT REAR -
10: Black GROUND (Duh!!!)
11: Yellow/Black BATTERY
12: Red IGNITION
