so whats the orange wire? lol

[k-roy]

I have no clue. I have only installed Pioneer decks, and one clarion.

Orange is probably a dimmer or something. Don't need it hooked up to anything for the radio to work.

[POS carb]

orange is illumination, it tells the radio to dim when the lights are on (if this is a feature of your radio)
if your harness has a blue wire for power antenna don't hook it up.
also some sony's have a connection for "ATT" or mobile phone hands free kits, it mutes the radio when you get a call

but now the antenna jack from the cord' broke...so need new...if anyone has a spare!
