1) Any Pioneer site will give you the color codes for the head unit, in case you do not have the manual. As for the vehicle side of the wiring, this link should help: http://www.240edge.com/manuals/89-90_240sx/system_w.pdf

A couple of things might be happening: 1) Check that the miniplug tha you are using is STEREO (3 contacts), because otherwise, it will short the input. 2) Check that once plugged, you have the proper source selected in the pioneer headunit (AUX). 3) You will lose all of the iphone / ipod features unless you use the usb jack. I suggest that you buy the pioneer adapter to use these Apple devices.

Directions say to turn power off, press and hold the "multi-control" key until language shows. Turn the dial to select the option to change. Use the "multi-control" key left or right to select the part of the clock to change, move the key up or down to change the time.

Select another option to save changes.

Best of Luck.

I have a similar problem, but only when the AUX1 input (bottom of the faceplate) has something connected.
I am looking to solve this problem.

Yes sir, definately a bad connection, the power wire is probably touching or grounding out.You need to remove the deck and rewire most likely. Let me know when u remove the stereo.

You have to check the radio harness and see if the connections are correct or if you have a grounding problem or some short. Check the face plate for any damage to the connectors were it meets the main deck were the radio face sits in.

Good luck.

connection of this wire is not required and will not affect the functionality of the radio. not all cars have a connection for the orange wire

Its called a harness. You have to get one that match your vehicles harness and since the wires are color coded, connections will be easy just remember if your spare wires are dimmer neg. and pos. dont wired them together, cover them with electric tape individually so it wont short the head unit.

You can go to radio shack and grab a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable. make sure that is male -to - male. Some decks are equipped with an AUX IN in the front and some in the back and then some have both. This wire will resemble the same input end of an earphone plug. Once you have your device plugged in then just press the SRC button on your deck till it says AUX, AUX IN, or Audio. Let me know if this helps

You need to press function button repeatedly until AUX is displayed in the lcd

tape off any unused wires, do not let them touch ground or any other wire.

you may have a bad ground to the rca's, try running a wire from ground to the rca shield. if it is a bad ground to the rcas, the noise should go away.if you are good at soldering, should be able to just solder a wire to the rca shield.

pioneer website,its a bit complicated not for the novice i broke 2 when i first learnt how to do them they are made not to replace

turn unit off and hold down volume dial and it will give advanced menu then you can change it in here

sounds like you may have a bad power or ground connection or have it wired wrong.

you might have blown fuses.check the fuses on the stereo unit aswell as the fuses on your car ..

Try the reset button behind the faceplate. Here's the manual just in case.
