I have a 1991 Volvo 240 and I am trying to install the original radio back in. Two aftermarket radios were previously installed and both stolen. The latest thieves ripped the radio from the dash pulling apart a lot of wires. I am able to get power to the radio, but the speakers are stumping me. I'm assuming the factory amp was bypassed when the aftermarket radios were installed. How do I get the OE radio to work again?
On this website, you find wiring diagram radio circuit for Volvo 240 (1991)
Volvo 240 1991 wiring diagrams radio circuit
Go to www.installer.com just got a setup for my 95 eclipse.. factory fit. and reasonably priced..
Google Volvo wiring diagram. They are available free. The diagram shows the wire location and colors. Otherwise, run a continuity test with a simple meter to discover a connection with some resistance between a pair of wires. If you here a click or two, from the speakers, you have found the right pair. Continue and label the pairs left, right, front,rear, until all are identified. Then reconnect. A pain but not rocket science.
