RED IS USUALLY POSITIVE
RED-WHITE IS MORE THAN LIKELY NEGATIVE
TO CHECK SPEAKER POLARITY:
1. HOOK LEADS UP AS I DESCRIBED
2.TAKE A AAA,AA,C,OR D BATTERY
3.CONNECT POSITIVE SIDE TO POS ON BATTERY...NEGATIVE TO NEG END......
4. IF SPEAKER "CONE" PUFFS OUTWARD..POLARITY IS CORRECT. IF IT PULLS INWARD..POLARITY IS REVERSED

Radio wiring code for 1987 mercedes benz 300. With aftermarket radio the windows switch ligths blinks and have no instrument ligths.

Hi, the aftermarket stereo does not use the illumination wire. You must tape that wire off (purple/gray). That wire is either connected to the wrong place or is touching chassis ground and causing your instrument lights to dim.
Connect the stereo's red wire to the car's black/yellow wire; and connect the stereo's yellow wire to the car's red/white wire.

I recently was trying to install a 10 inch pa sub with a 3/6 inch tweeter and in the process snipped the black and red wires connected the sub it did not come on I then snipped the blue and red wires in...

sounds like you blew some fuses replace them. then reconnect stock wiring. the get after market deck, amp, and wiring that in it's color coded so it no that hard to do.that 10 inch pa speaker pulls a lot power plus it 8 ohm impudence. your going to need at least a 200 watt amp.bridgeable.
or single channel.

Can i run 1 10 inch sub of the stock amp that

Not made for that. Its a high pass amp to power the speakers, unless you have a stock sub, but its still going to be to weak to get full potential out of the sub.

Radio wiring problem 2001 Audi A3

Hi, had total issues with this too! Your back speakers arent going because they are amped by the factory amp in the boot. You have to provide power to the amp so that it will turn the rear speakers on. This was a white and black striped wire in my car (Audi A3 1997) The rear speakers are blue /green and brown/red (left rear) , and the LH rear is brown/red and (forgotten colour) but the wire on the bottom left under those two brown/red wires on the 20pin harness. If you wire it all up like this then your rears should be going :)
