help!! 1997 f150 aftermarket headunit wiring
i go the old 6 disc cd player with casset player out of the truck and i had 3 wires coming from the old one the antenna and 2 diffrent ones. and the new stereo only takes one and neither will fit i had some diffrent adapters but i cant figure it out. I know that the new stereo and old one have diffrent wires and dont know what wire goes to what wire.

When you say there is 3 wires coming out of the back of the radio I assume you mean there is the antenna and 2 other plugs, and the other plug have multile wires coming out of them. There were 2 different harnesses for that truck if I remember correctly. One version had 2 rectangular plugs and usually one was grey and the other black. And the upgraded radios had a more square shaped plug. If it is the square plug, look down in the cavity where the radio is, there is the rectangular plugs a little lower. I hope this makes sense, easier to talk about than try and typing it.
