To wire a Pioneer head unit, first disconnect the car battery to ensure safety. Connect the wiring harness from the head unit to the vehicle's harness, matching the colors (e.g., red for power, yellow for constant power, and black for ground). If necessary, connect the speaker wires from the head unit to the corresponding speakers, ensuring correct polarity (positive to positive and negative to negative). Finally, secure all connections, reattach the battery, and test the unit before finalizing the installation.
The Pioneer CDX-FM687 will work with any head unit, but works best with other Pioneer units.
ive just bought a new car and have replaced the factory fitted head unit with a pioneer i took out of my old car, it works perfectly but when i take the key out it stays on, its wired exactly the same as in my old car and t worked fine then, is this a problem with all peugeots? or do i need to wire it differently? it can be turned off by a button on the radio but will this drain the battery? thanks tom
A pioneer what? Head unit? Amplifier? Your question doesnt make much sense..
Either your remote wire from you head unit to your amp is broken or not connected properly, you don't have a remote wire, or your head unit is faulty. Try another piece of cable as your remote wire from your head unit, and if it still does not work, your head unit is faulty. To save buying a new HU, you could wire the remote wire to your accessories, but be cautious as you could flatten your battery quickly if wiring incorrectly.
The remote wire on an amp is usually connected to the remote turn-on lead from the head unit or a separate switched power source. This wire sends a signal to the amplifier to turn on or off based on when the head unit is powered on or off. It is typically colored blue on most wiring harnesses.

u need a head unit removal key that came with your stereo and insert those into each side of the unit and pull out
The ill wire is supposed to be connected with the parking lights of the car. it actually reduces the brightness of your head unit, it is needed because in the night the head unit looks very flashy and the ill wire brings it to a normal level as you turn on your cars parking lights.
Your head unit should have a wire marked as P. Antenna that's the wire you need to connect.
To install an amplifier to an Impala head unit, first, disconnect the negative battery terminal for safety. Connect the amplifier's power wire to the car's battery, ensuring a fuse is installed close to the battery. Run the ground wire to a solid metal point on the vehicle, and connect the remote turn-on wire from the head unit to the amplifier. Finally, connect the speaker wires from the amplifier to the speakers, and reconnect the battery.
Yes you can. You need to buy an inline convertor that takes the speaker output from the back of the head unit and turns them into RCA outputs. Then you need to find any wire that powers up when the car is on and off when the car is off. Splice into that wire from the Remote turn on wire. The rest is a simple.
The red wire is the positive wire. The black wire is the ground wire. The yellow wire is the speaker wire. The white wire is the auxiliary wire.
