  I am looking for stereo wiring information for
  
  ..

under no circumstances cut any wires
the trailer plug is generic so proper trailer wires will have the correct colors for the plug pin numbers
by using a multimeter or circuit light you can determine which wire in the block is live and then connect the corresponding color in and then to the correct pin number in the plug
probably quicker if you get a tow bar shop to fit the plug for your
takes around 10 minutes to fit the correct harness that they will have

sounds like the clock is wired to the +12v from the stereo instead of ILLUM from the ignition, this light should only come on with the headlights... Connect the wire from the clock bulb to ILLUM on the stereo wiring - I cant find an escort manual so youll have to find which wire is clock power and which one is clock lighting, nedless to say you leave the clock power and ground as they are - just cut the lighting wire and attatch it to the ILLUM for the stereo with a crimp or block connector. ...
tape up everything you leave disconnected.
now the light will only come on with dipped or beam lights, not just all the time on its own.

there is two connectors that plug into the stock radio,one is white and one is black,if someone has cut yours off,the best thing you could do is visit a local salvage yard and tell them you need the two radio connectors ,tell them when they cut them out to leave you about four inches of wire from each connector.
then take them home and your color codes are all there and the same.

Hi there,

You'll need to determine which of these connectors match yours, then follow the appropriate diagrams:

Check the fuses. When they cut it out, they probably blew one or more.

if you go to a salvage and buy a stereo for that vehicle yes all you do is plug in the wires if you go to a sore and buy a stereo you have to cut the wires and wire them in

Go to halfords or somwher like that buy the iso connector for your make and model
if your car still has the ford plugs on the ends of the wires just plug in the connector between car and stereo If the ford plugs are missing cut the ford end off the connector match the wires to your car and solder together and plug into your stereo or any others you buy in the future with an ISO connection Did this with my 89 orion.

Yes this is not to bad to deal with.. make sure you use quality wire connectors so you don't have problems later with bad connections. you pretty much just have to match the colors from the harness in the car to the ones on your deck. If you don't want to cut off the harness connector on your deck just purchase one that you can connect to your deck and cut the wire ends on the other side of the adapter. The only wires you wont be able to match color for color is speaker wires... for these you will just have to hook them up temp. and test to see that they are connected to the proper speaker output.
