I have a JVC Cd Deck that i am trying to remove so that I can hook up my radio, so that the remote wire for the amp will work. (previous deck, subs, amps stolen, thieves cut radio wire short, so Future Shop did not hook the radio back up when i got the new deck installed by them)
After messing around with it all morning, i decided to read the manual, and found out that there are two L-shaped handles that are needed to remove the deck. (They insert beside the sleeve)
However, even though the handles were supposed to come with the deck, I can't find them, and the deck was installed over a year ago so theyre long gone now.
So, after trying the "Search" option, I have three questions:
1) Is there an alternative to the handles for removing the deck? (It doesn't seem that the Future Shop installers bolted the deck to anything, so it should slide out)
2) After hooking up my radio wire, should this solve my problem with getting power from my amp? (Because when I hook up my power and remote wires, I still don't get a power singal from the amp)
3)This is a little off tangent, but it seems that I have 2 remote wires, one is black and the other black and white, seperated with a butt connector.
What does the other wire do?
edit: since im already asking, im also wondering what the thin wire that runs along my monster cables is for? is it some sort of ground, or shield? and also, there is a black wire that runs along the driver side, which runs up towards the back window, and connects to a very small black box, which has an adhesive backing for sticking to the top of the back window, does anyone have one of these or know what this is for?
