Driving a 1991 EB w/ the Audiophile stereo; cassette mechanism in head unit is broken. Took it out to look at it and several springs and wheels fell out on the floor. (nice).
Recently bought a '93 EB parts car that had the factory stereo/CD player out of the dash and laying on the floor. This '93 has the premium sound system, not the audiophile.
Tried installing the '93 head unit in the '91, connectors all lined up and fit but no lights, no sound, no nothing.
I know that the audiophile has a separate subwoofer with its own amp. Would that cause the '93 to not fire up? (e.g., different wires, same connectors)?
EDIT: according to my understanding of the article listed below, there is no difference in the elect. connectors between the 1991-1994 Premium head unit and the 1991-1994 audiophile head unit; the only difference is that the premium head unit puts out more watts (Premium head unit: 4X20; Audiophile head unit: 4x15).
Doubt it but thought I would ask. I can't check the CD player in the '93 as seller had home-wired an aftermarket stereo in and the wire harness is a bit messy in the '93.
Anyone have a '91-'92 factory audiophile stereo/CD player for sale?
