kenwood deck problems

Connecting this to power controlled by the key will have the radio come on when the car starts and off when the key is turned off. BLACK - ground to bare metal. BLUE - this is the wire that goes to the amp remote-on terminal. If the deck has both BLUE and BLUE/STRIPE the BLUE goes to the power antenna ONLY, and the BLUE/STRIPE goes to the amp. ok im new to this and my local electronics store trying to charge $160 to install it so i thought i would rather do it. my deck has a all those colors and it has a remote wire that is blue with a green stripe.there is also a power connection wire that is blue with the white stripe.Do i just hook it up color for color and my remote wire attached to the extended one from my amp. But in my deck how does a 12 volt get sent threw? do i need to attach a switched constant wire to the remote making it a three wire crimp?? |

so i just tape up the remote wire from the deck and leave it alone then?
|
and also theres a blue with white stripe wire coming from my car audio harness ,what do i do with that wire
|
when hooking up your deck all you need to worrie about is you red yellow and black and then your speaker wires, if you have an amp then hook up your blue and white to it

Dukk was referring only to the wire colors on the new cd player, not any of the wires in the car..... If you are stuck already on what to most people is a simple job, then stop before you damage something and end up paying huge bucks to have it repaired. If the shop was quoting your $160.00 for it, it is either not straight foward or they wanted to bend you over. Any chance that you needed a interface harness for example? Quite often those harnesses are over $80.00 alone. What vehicle is this for?
