Am trying to install the kicker upgrade sub in my 2013 f150 with the sony upgrade system. I have a supercab so it is mounted in the drivers side. In the directions it says to tap into the white and white/brown wires. Well the problem is I don't have these wires there. Any idea which wires I should be tapping into?



This is the only picture I got of the wires. There are a white and a white/ blue. And a purple/orange and gray/orange if I remember right. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Subscribed, I also have a 13 SCab FX4 (no Sony System 4.2" screen) And will be installing this Kicker upgrade in the near future but installing under the passenger rear seat!!

 

You might PM member: 'Rnlcomp'...
He has a 2013 XLT Scab with the Kicker he may be able to help

White and white/brown are the correct wires, shop wiring diagram concurs. If you don't see them trace the wires from either one of the front speakers (not the tweeters) as that is what the amp gets it's input from.

EDIT: The two wires will be twisted around each other.You may need to skin back the black wrap higher up or down in that harness.

 

I installed the kicker in my 2013 SCab and really had to open up the harness to find the wires like Rnlcomp said.

 

I found the white and white/brown wires in the rubber between the door and cab but I can not find them in the harness they picture in the instructions anywhere. Could the wires be ran a different direction due to the sony system? Or is there a plug in between the door and cab someplace that they may change color?

 

Nope, same color from the sound processor all the way to the speaker itself.


Straight out of the shop manual.

You will have to modify the brackets it comes with to do that because it bolts directly to the rear seat frame driver side. In the screw it bolts to the floor.

 

RNLCOMP, is it the same wires for a screw cab, my kicker upgrade gets delivered tomorrow, I have Sony system, thanks bud
