I've procured a radio harness from an '01 Outback (LL Bean), and was hoping someone could help me ID these harness wires so I can wire it in my loyale.

 

I really only need to know 7 of these wires for the loyale (batt power, acc power, left spkr [2], right spkr [2], and ground)

 

8 of the wires are twisted in pairs...

RY/WB

G/BrW

LY/RW

WR/RB

 

remaining single wires are...

BW

YG

B (heavier gauge)

G

purple

LR

 

Greatly appreciate someone telling me which of these harness wires match the 7 I need!

Most radios and adapter harnesses have standarized wiring. If your harness is standard, here's the code:

 

Red 12Volt Ignition/accessory

Yellow 12 Volt Battery/memory

Black Ground

Blue Power antenna

Blue/wht Amp turn on

Black/wht Amp ground

Orange Illumination

Orange/wht dimmer

Brown Phone mute

Gray Right/front +

Gray/blk Right/front -

White Left/front +

White/blk Left/front -

Violet Right/rear +

Violet/blk Right/rear -

Green Left/rear +

Green/blk Left/rear -
