The lonely yellow with a black stripe is a
speed signal lead from the car that allows
the radio’s auto-volume feature know how
fast the car is going and adjust the volume
level accordingly.

The busier connector carries two power,
two ground, a switched power, antenna
power and dash illumination.

The Dolby center channel speaker is on a third
SC-900/901 exclusive green connector. ( IIRC,
there are few other options that may also
appear on this connector for things like
phone mute, etc.)

What’s concerning is, besides the yellow with
a black, I’m not sure if any of the other wires
in your pic are actually for the audio system.

Here are the C70 Coupe diagrams and component
locations. I you have the convertible, let me know
and I’ll see what I can dig up.
