In a 1996 Saturn SC, the illumination wire for the radio typically connects to the vehicle's interior lighting circuit, which is often found in the harness that provides power to the radio. This wire is usually colored either brown or orange, but it's best to consult a wiring diagram specific to your vehicle to confirm the correct wire. Connecting it will allow the radio's display to dim or brighten in sync with the car's dashboard lights. Always ensure the vehicle is off and disconnected from power before making any wiring connections.
