R31 Stereo Head Unit Wiring

[awramenko]

Hi,

I have just bought an after market head unit for my 1987 skyline silhouette,

i cannot find any wiring diagrams for the old 8 pin plug and ive seriously tried to figure out what goes where with the multimeter but the pins all seem to share a connections so im totally confused, lost and majorly f...ing annoyed after 3 hours.

does anyone know the pin configeration for this?

rewire it. there is no other way to do it as they use a common negative. so thats 4 runs of speaker cable.. have fun.

i have no problem mounting the head unit, i just cant get to the wires, it looks like i need to remove the dash to place new wires properly, how do i do this?

Just pay a car audio joint over $100 and they will sort out your issue correctly fused and all wiring soldered and correctly insulated.

You have wasted so much time now and noone on a forum can teach you how to install headunit.

Id be getting it done properly with a warranty on labour if anything goes wrong your covered.

You can take 12V+ Constant, 12V+ Accessory, and Earth from the plug. Work out which is which by using the multimeter.

If you're running the speakers straight from the headunit, then run speaker cable from the back of the headunit outputs to each door / the parcel shelf.
