I have them somewhere, I must have misplaced them. ( I think i left them in the trunk. I will find it out for sure tomorrow, but here's something to start with).

You have 6 speaker connections on the connector.

If you hold the connector with the 13 pins on the top with the connector facing you (wires away from you), the two wires on the top left are for the center speaker.

The remaining thin wires on that row are the line level signals from the head unit. The two remaining are ignition and ground.

The bottom row, speakers are paired two by two,
I can't remember the order exactly but you can test it. (I think it was sub, front left, front right, rear left, rear right). The remaining wire is the power.

Sorry, I don't yet know how the +/- are arranged.

1. how do test which speaker wires goes to which speaker?

2. The "ignition" lead, is that the remote turn on? can i tap that signal for my other amp?

if possible can you confirm the order of the speaker order, or could you scan the wiring diagram?

any help would be great

Thanks

As promised here are the actual colors and functions.

1a Green (center)
..................................1b red/gray (sub)
2a Black (center)
..................................2b brown/gray (sub)
3a X
..................................3b blue/yellow (front left)
4a X
..................................4b brown/green (front left)
5a X
..................................5b brown/blue (front right)
6a brown (line in common)
..................................6b green/blue (front right)
7a white (line in rear right)
..................................7b brown/yellow (rear left)
8a green (line in rear left)
..................................8b red/yellow (rear left)
9a yellow (line in front right)
..................................9b brown/blue (rear right)
10a green (line in front left)
..................................10b brown/green (rear right)
11a brown (ground)
..................................11b X
12a X
..................................12b White (remote)
13a red/blue (power)

Sorry, I don't have any idea what is + and what is - for the speakers (anyone?). I just assumed the first one is + and the second one is - and was consistent. I.e. 1a,1b,3b,5b,7b,9b are all plus and 2a,2b,4b,6b,8b,10b are all minus. I tested my system and it sounds OK. I didn't notice any phase problems.

I'm sure of the connections now, also cause I used the surround sound test to check the speakers. (my tuner can run the same test that you usually use at home to check speaker levels)

I'm sure you can figure out the orientation by looking at the colors.

Hope this helps. I'll post a better version on my website soon.
