This may not help as I don't know what color it is, but along with your Power - Accessory wires theres a couple more wires that needs to be hooked to power for the above accessories to work, so I suggest if you havent done so already to hook those wires up and endcap them. You can check which ones are power wires by using a voltometer on them. I had your similar problem and my soultion fixed it.

I just installed an aftermarket radio in a 93 mustang and I had to hook up the blue wire for the power amp to work. I am not an expert just passing on what fixed my problem. Good luck

My windows and lock and windshield wipers are not working

New vehicles now have a CPU that controls everything. Removing a component like the radio will result in a confusing side effect of another.
If you put an after market radio in it's place it might not reconnect all the components needed for the CPU. You need to ask if there is a installation kit that goes with your specific make, model of vehicle when installing a aftermarket radio.

1990 ford taurus wipers quit. tried a different wiper motor tried a new relay tried a new wiper switch.. What else could it be?

Try running yoor own ground wire directly to the wiper motor or the wiper motor mount,this woks 80% of the time.

Can not find where to plug CD player to the harness

does the radio have cd changer controlls? if so you may find the wires in the trunk if not you will have to buy a harness from ford and make sure the cd changer will work with the stock radio. Call the local ford dealer parts dep but make sure you have the vin number from the car with that they can look up the car and tell you what options where installed from the factory and can order the correct cable

I installed an aftermarket radio in my 2003 ford expedition and my amp won't power up nor will my rear sub woofer play.

Do you have a battery positive wire as well as a switchable power wire? Is it properly grounded? Double check for power and ground. Aftermarket radios have two blue wires for switchable power. one for an amp, and the other for a power antenna. Make sure the right one is used.

2003 Ford Explorer CD Player (Single to 6 disc)

You will have to go to Best Buy, or whatever your nearest audio installation place is, and request wiring harnesses for the type of radio you are putting in, and also the type of vehicle, I believe you can put any aftermarket stereo in any vehicle, as long as it fits in the dashboard. Hope it helps.
