IIRC my old '90s Pioneer head unit, while the manual directs you to ground through the black wire on the head unit's harness, is also simply grounded through the brackets to the metal frame of the radio.

Basically everything else in the interior (cluster, accessories, everything) grounds to M57 which is up under the passenger side dash.

Thanks dude. Ill be checking that ground.


I went with the test light,.checked the far right cluster plug. Green wire is showing me 4v and it started dinging like i had keys in the ignition which i dont.
Green wire is 12v meter according to the fsm
