2004 sport Trac. This worked great. 8mms for the airbags and 7mms for the security module. I tried from above and I don't see how it could be done.

I have a 2004 explorer sport trac that I recently acquired from a Mazda dealer. Within weeks the O/D indicator started flashing and I detected that it will not go into Overdrive and the 1-2 shift is clunky. I failed to detect this during the test drive. I took it in for the annual safety...

I have a 04 sport track that I just replaced the HU. You can read my post to understand what wires do each function. I need to retest when it gets a bit warmer but I cannot confirm the secondary subwoofer amp is working. EDIT: Fixed it. I had a loose wire that fed 12V to the power...

There are some small gaps in the corners and that bottom piece could be brought forward further as I can now see in direct sunlight. What appear to be scratches in the forward most part are actually reflections from some chrome bits on the unit. The scratch below the Voice button is real.

Wiring harness that I connected into and a mounting bar that I had to remove. I stored the extension and the removed bar back behind the climate control knobs where their is plenty of space. I mounted the microphone on top of the steering column and was able to fish the wire in the gap between...

The Metra 95-5817 Kit includes two side mounting pieces and a thin bottom piece to fill in any gaps. The bottom piece appears to want to snap into the side pieces but fits poorly for that. Its just friction holding it in. I had a small gap at the top but with the visual lines from the cab its...

I used a Dremel cut-off wheel to trim the plastic. The directions say to leave as much as possible top and bottom that will still allow a fit but I found that cutting it all the way to flush was necessary.

The Kenwood is significantly taller than the OEM Pioneer 6 disc changer and requires that the top of the panel to be cut down. I dont think this would interfere with putting the original back in as the Ford HU has a pretty deep faceplate that would cover up what was cut out and the sides of...

I understand why Ford might want to direct supply a larger constant hot and ground to the OEM head unit. I dont understand why they would feed that back into the harness though. I ended up just storing this extension cable back behind the climate controls as the Metra/Kenwood harness provided...

Crutchfield tech support is now recommending a Metra 70-5521. The pin count is right and the owner's manual diagram looks about right. Should arrive by Tuesday. I am curious if the Metra will plug into both the main wiring harness and the extension. I did not take a good picture but from the...

The subwoofer amp has a 10 pin connection as follows Vio/Blu constant hot. empty empty empty Blk/Grn GND Grn/Vio purpose unknown NEXT ROW empty empty Red/Blk purpose unknown Brn/Org purpose unknown I can presume that of the unknowns, one is a ON signal when the head unit gets power and the...

Part 1 solved. The wiring diagram is fiction and bares no resemblance to what is actually in the vehicle.

Now it is clear. My diagram is for the sub woofer amp which is what I have, not the Adrenalin. Looks like your amp also drives the rear doors, while mine uses the head unit for the rears and I have to dig into it to see if the front speakers are driven by the amp or the head unit.

I dont have my explorer until next week but these do what you want electrically...

I wont take delivery of my 2004 Sport Trac until early next week but according to this wiring diagram and as best I can interpret your photos, it looks like you are driving the rear speakers with RCA line level instead of amplified signals from the Head Unit. What am I missing?

https://www.justanswer.com/uploads/VirtualWrench/2009-05-06_184951_pioneer.pdf I have reviewed the above wiring diagram and the harness documentation for a Metra 70-1771 and a lot of things do not make much sense. tjtheman007 also did a good write-up in this thread and I looked that over too...

More questions about the wiring diagram - The subwoofer amp indicates it gets constant rather than switched power. That seems like a strange choice. Two wires from the CD changer to the amp show no documented purpose. They are terminals 1 and 2 RED/BLACK and BROWN/ORANGE on the head unit and...

I recently acquired (well perhaps Monday) 2004 Explorer sport trac to replace my 2002 sport trac that was lost to hurricane Harvey. I will be replacing the Pioneer 6 disc changer with a kenwood replacement because I need AUX in for my ZUMO GPS. I already ordered the replacement from...
