Hi all

I have bought an aux input cable but it has arrived without the jack plug. I've got the radio out and removed the plug. Can anyone tell me which colour goes to which pins number on the plug from the following pictures. Thanks

Not sure on the colours JAy, BUT does it have the resistor in the lead, as I know some don't, and it needs to be there for the head unit to detect that you've fitted an aux lead, and activate it.

Thanks for that. The resistors are in it Mike. Car running and starting fine now. No battery drain and sounding really strong on start up even after a few days. Cd changer won't recognise magazine. I think that's down to that missing bus cable. Cheers for your help and I'm still searching for that elusive back box :thumbsup:

At least it looks like it's cured!
