my vk only has 4 wires that come from behind the head unit. I've bought a new stereo head unit and want to put it in but with no luck available.

All l've got there is:
Light Blue
Grey
Black

my money's on you blowing a fuse, as the #7 fuse is for the door locks nad the radio. check that you havent crossed any wires, and that none of the wires rub on bare metal if the fuse blows again

did the old radio that was in there work??you need a yellow accessories and 12V+ constant to run a new CD player. The acc SHOULD be there, especially if the old radio works. The 12V you have to run yourself from the battery.

If you have no yellow acc wire, you can either just run it to teh same 12V+ constant wire or you'll have to find an accessories wire and splice into that. If it goes to 12V constant, you will have to turn the HU off when you get out of the car, as it wont turn off with the car

what your problem is is that you probably dont have your 12V constant connected. You need to connect the 12V+ constant (probably the fattest wire on your HU loom) to the orange/white wire in the car

yup the old radio did... now it is incapacitated.

I'll grab a multimeter and see what l can do. I'm a total newbie at wiring anything so l would apprechiate any hints and tips.

Thanks again! :)

If anyone wants stuff answered, its probably not a good idea to post in this thread, as people dont look at it that much
