The factory manual doesn't show the connections. There appears to be three connections for power, +12v, ground, light, which is which. There are three wires for right and left speakers, third wire is(?).

If you experiment, make sure that you don't turn the volume up until you have the spealers working. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2002 Posts: 1,002 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2002 Posts: 1,002 | I was unclear on the speaker wires. There are three wires for each side. Each side has a black(grd?), blue(?), and a yellow or green. I'm guessing the black is ground, and the yellow and green are signal, and the blue, no idea. The power connections I can probably work out if I pop the cover off, but I've got many things going on. Hoping for a little help.

The information off the stickers is Service Model 01V?P3. the ? is either an E or an F, Product Number 7312721. The knob spacing looks good at 6 3/16 center to center. The bezel is 2 1/8 x 3 7/8, which makes it too narrow by about 5/8, but still usable. My memory failed me on the speaker wire colors. They are Gr, Gr, blk for one side and the other is GR, YL, Blue. Any help on what this might be out of would be appreciated.
I'm going to go ahead and use it. I'll cut a piece of black plastic to go around the bezel when I install it. I won't be installing it for about a month since part of the rebuild kit for the heater control is on back order.
