What's this audio plug? 2001

[mrazndead]

my eddie bauer has an amp, and a woofer in the back, i have an after market cd player, and i noticed these red plugs aren't plugged into anything, could it be the stock amp and sub setup? if so, where and how the heck do i plug it into my deck?

 

[mrazndead]

so that plug is this: MACH Stereo Amp Wire Harness FRR-5700

but i dont know how to hook it up to my current cd player.

found this on ebay:

Ford Factory w Mach Stereo Amp Wire Harness FRR 5700 | eBay

my current desk plugged in and working just no factory sub or subwoofer working

what if i hooked up that blue / white wire coming from the deck and hooked it up to the blue/white wire on the harness? (that cable is the amp power).????

I had the exact same set up on amazon I found a metra harness for the sub wowoofer and it just plugs in and then you have a blue and yellow wire the yellow just hook to the constant 12v and the blue wire is amp turn on or some thing ill look and take pics in the morning

Thanks man, if you can atke soem pictures of how you hooked it up, i may just need this harness and hook up my stock amp and speaker instead of aftermarket amp and sub...

I do believe so let me go double check for you though and if you get this harness you can run a sub and amp that are entirely aftermarket off of the factory harness like I did with my pioneer

this is what I got as the head unit I bought just has one push port fort a sub not a left and right like the one you found. With mine you take the blue wire it is amp turn on and stick it to constant 12v yellow and then the amp ground and put that to the radio ground Amazon.com: Metra 70-5517 Radio Wiring Harness for Ford Pre Amp Plug #3: Car Electronics

thanks monkey.

i think i'm just going to go all aftermarket amp and sub from scratch. i'd hate to find out that the stock amp is toast or the stock sub sucks or something. i have an alpine amp and kicker so i'll just go get a amp kit. I wanted to try and stay all stock, but it might be just better to do all aftermarket, plus it will be an upgrade over stock. thanks for your help

I would use the adapter and do what I did avoid taking the whole interior apart just get an adapter and then you have all the wires pre ran and its just plug and play for a new amp and sub I know 4 gauge is recommended but that's just a precaution and also a gigantic amount of money to throw at wire so I said screw it and just cut the OEM harness of the little amp and plugged my new set up in to it

monkey, i'm buying this for 35 bucks. Kicker comp VR 10 with box

 

[TactialMonkey]

ok fair enough. in just hate sub boxes that chill in the back of my car and use all my space I need that cargo area its sacred to me haha

I'm glad I decided to go aftermarket. Its thumping hard. Bazooka hits hard. Rattling the rear glass
