Wiring Instructions - Scosche FD5000SW Manual

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery to avoid any short circuits.
2. Remove and unplug factory stereo. (If needed, call Scosche Tech Support 1 (800) 621-3695 x3 for
stereo removal steps.)
3. Match and connect the appropriate wires from the FD5000SW harness to the appropriate wires of the
plug provided with your stereo. For example, connect the yellow +12V Constant lead from your stereo
to the yellow wire of the FD5000SW harness. (See wiring diagram section for additional information.)
NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with steering wheel controls and you are installing a compatible aftermarket
stereo, see pages 8-9 for connection information.
4. Note that the RED +12V accessory wire and the orange illumination wire for your aftermarket stereo are
coming from the FD5000SW module itself, not the vehicle harness.
5. If your aftermarket stereo does not have all matching color-coded wires for the FD5000SW interface
harness, then cap or tape unused wires separately to avoid short circuits.
6. Reconnect the negative battery cable, close all doors and remove the key from vehicle ignition.
7. Allow the vehicle to come to a "resting" or "sleep" state for a few minutes without any key inserted,
door/hood/trunk open and all vehicle accessories turned to the OFF position.
8. Connect the small black 8-pin harness to the FD5000SW interface module (black plastic box).
9. Connect the FD5000SW connector to the Factory Harness.
10. As you install your new stereo, place the FD5000SW interface module in the dash cavity.
(Optional: Cable ties or double sided tape can be used to secure the module, but are not included)
