nichinholland Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Hi I have a 1997 Ford Escort Cabriolet with a Ford 6000 cd radio fitted as standard. This says its cd changer compatible and has a socket on the rear for a plug. I have just been given a CD changer ( 6 cds ) from a Ford Mondeo Ghia 2004, its a a ford CD changer made by Alpine in 2003 that had it fited as an extra when bought ( along with the DVD player that I did not want ) Emailed Alpine but they say it was sold under liscence to Ford so cant help me ? Even though they made it haha and to contact Ford ? The problem I have is that I have no wiring plugs on the CD unit or on the wiring loom they've been cut so I only have just 8 different wires coming out of the cd changer. coloured: Yellow Orange Red Green Blue Grey Mauve Brown On the rear of the radio I have 12 pins, and I know what they should be for according to the internet 1 ACP + 2 GND, ACP 3 GND 4 (Empty ) 5 Audio R 6 Audio L + 7 ACP 8 CD, ACP 9 ( Empty ) 10 GND, AUD 11 Audio R- 12 Audio L- Can someone let me know what coloured wires from the CD changer go to what pins in the 6000cd radio ? or tell me where I can get a diagram of the wiring so I can fit it. IE Yellow 6, Orange 10 ETC IE Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nichinholland Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 I think this car had a Sony 6000 cd radio fitted ? ( did not see the radio ) with the DVD screen in it, it definately had a dvd player in the boot as well all in one factory made carpetted box fixed to the inside of the boot. I just need to know which coloured wires ( 8 from the cd, see picture ) go to my FORD 6000CD cd conector ( 12 pins ) I have some wire just need to connect them to the right pins in the rear of the radio.

nichinholland Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 Hi I thought I'd put some more pics up to show what I'm trying to do. I have as I said sorted 4 wires for the Speakers That leaves 4 wires from the CD Changer to go to my Escort conector block with 8 pins left free on the rear of the stereo ? The block on my car ( as you can see lists the pins that are left as 1: ACP + 2: GND ACP 3: GND 4: NOT LISTED 7: ACP - 8: ACP CD 9: NOT LISTED 10: GND AUD I traced the 4 wires back from a connector block for the Mondeo and this is where the wires I have left went to on that block A9 : CAN + A11: KEYCODE GND A10: CAN - A15: BATT + Nohing like what I've got on my block connector ? I tried checking what ACP, + / - is on my connector only found ADJACENT CHANNEL POWER ? On the Mondeo block connector , CAN + / - and KEYCODE GND no idea ???????????? Batt + is I presume power ? Below are the pics of both connectors you can see the referances on there as they are listed Does this help anyone any more to give me an answer ? Thanks in advance Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
