Radio wiring Help please (searched)
I have checked the FAQ and obtain the colors for my wiring which were all correct, for the speakers.
Once I got to the new radio only my rear speaker wires are there., I can not find the door wires, any ideas? Looking at my wires there where the two harnesses, a circle connecter and a male and femal antenna - like connector.
My massive issue is that I can not get the system to turn on and I am not really sure why.
My radio http://inform2.kenwoodusa.com/manuals%5CKDCMP228.pdf (page 25 are my colors for wires)
I have (what I think) is correct
My ignition wires (stereo) is connected to the (accourding to the manual it says to the ACC) Accessory wire (RX-7)
My Battery wire (stereo) is connected to 12v
I am utterly confused I did search and am greatly sorry if this has been answered, I couldn't find it.

is this a vert or what?
You need to post what car this is. In fact DO NOT POST ever again, without including model and year information.
If this is a vert (as I suspect), then the 6 pin DIN connector is for the door sub-woofer amp.

All of the stock stereo wiring is shown in the FSM Wiring Diagrams. Once you look at that most of your questions will answer themselves.

I have read the FSM I have door speakers and I assume an amp (which I can not find the white wire for turn on nor do I understand how to hook up for that). I am going to bypass the amp and run new wires direct to the radio (fixing my speaker problem), but I still do not understand why the stereo wont turn on. It was working fine in my Monte Carlo when I removed it, and the stereo's fuse is fine. Do I have the power wiring right?

check it with a voltimeter, also try and ground to a new source. if not, try it back on the monte carlo, you mihg thave messed up up the deck while messing with the rx7 wires.
if previous owners messed with the stock wireing, id run new wires. if your front dash speakers are working you have a good chance of ur door speakers working.
above all check the wiring again, if theres power it should turn on at least. sometimes for me the fuse will look good and then blow out the next. just plug a new fuse in a see what happends.

I will try the new fuse, I can't even get the stereo itself to turn on atm so I can not check the rear speaker (person before me removed dash not bothering with em). I figured out the door, I don't really see how to wire the amp to the stereo so I am going to just route new wires they seem pretty beat up anyway. Before I removed the old stereo the door speakers would work but the rear only got a crackle on the left channel w/ old and new speakers the wiring on it is ok I checked but who knows maybe I missed something I guess I will run new for that too. I can't check it in the monte atm which sucks I blew the flywheel and the engine has been removed lol
