Active Speakers

Post by lightning1 »

hello all,

Im having trouble with my stereo. As far as i can tell i have Active speakers - there is a built in sub behind the passenger seat which must have been factory fitted. The car is A UK 1990 MK2. It had the original stereo in when i brought the car and i have decided to put my sony one in.

The wiring is a nightmare and although i have searched the forums non of the wiring diagrams match mine. What i need to know is are all the rear speakers amplified? as when i run wires strait off the head unit to them the sound is minimal. If anyone also has any idea why i have two green wires and two brown wires in the wiring loom let me know!

Thanks in Advance

Harv

P.S. i also have a security light on the dash board? red LED next to the rev counter is this a factory fitted imobiliser? as there is no alarm or imobiliser thingy on the key as such?

Cheers

in case you haven't resolved your problems if you run a search you should find a wiring diagram for the mr2 audio on this site. It is a bit complicated compared to some cars and its my understanding that there are two amps in the Active system, one for the sub and one for the other speakers - someone may correct me though.

cheers
