car stereo inside house?
The yellow leads on the ATX supply should be the +12V, black for ground (to keep
it easy, just use one of the HDD power connectors, instead of the ATX plug).
Antenna and amp turnon are +12V output - on some decks, both simply come on when
the deck is on; with others, the antenna lead will only come on when the radio
portion is on. Illumination and Dimmer wires are typicallly tied into the
dashlights in some cars (one or the other, not both) - with some decks, it will
simply dim the display a set amount when the dashlights are on; with others, the
brightness can be controlled along with the dashlights. Of course, how well all
that works also depends on how the dashlights are wired in the car, too...
Not that any of this is relevant to you, I only offer it for informational
purposes (aince Atomic Fusion was unclear). If MOSFET has unblocked me again,
he'll say I'm showing off... actually, I'm just rambling for something to do...
No, thanks to both of you. I've heard people describe this before, but
they only talked about the wires used, never mentioning the other
wires, and I was like WTF? what about the other wires? Always good to
have the full amount of info when dealing with stuff like this.
So the blue/white wire is for an aftermarket amp? I wasn't sure if it
was the internal amp, etc.
Thanks again.
