sappst21 Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 I know in Chevrolet's you have to get a special wiring harness to keep Bose and Onstar chimes. Your Bose system should already have an amp, I'd check about the harness ....

Ray Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 the harness for your radio has a blue wire with a white stripe. hook that wire to the blue wire and the blue with white on the car's adapter harness. And bingo, you will have sound Quote 2008 California state record holder 157.2 Bassrace2009 California state record holder 157.0 BassraceRollin 50's 158.7db2009 King of Cali Bassrace2009 USACi score 160.5 @ 42hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassprodigy Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 all very good answers but not quite right..... nissan radio harnesses dont have grounds in them, they use the antenna as the ground.... what you need to do is make sure that the blue with white wire is hooked up, AND that the black with white is grounded.... what i do is run a short wire to the huge metal peice behind the radio use a ring terminal and screw that hoe inthere..... there you go....

That radio is iso It is grounded using the metal brackets that bolt to the subdash There is no wire on the opposing end of the factory harness for the black/white wire. Nice try though busting my balls.

Nice try though busting my balls. ISOing the radio grounds the radio, but not the amp.... there is a opposing wire on the factory side of the harness, and it must be grounded for sound... trust me i had this same arguement with my boss recently when he told our other installer that the bose would work with just the blue/white.......

BeatBox Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 that sucks. mine has bose in it too and at first i missed the "orange wire" i think and would turn on but no sound then i hooked it up and it was good to go, i went to best buy for advice and they talked for 10min about some bypass BULLSHIT i needed...i was like ill come back thanks. at the same time i though to myself "if i connected everything" and so i check right there in the parking lot and BINGO it worked! You have to connect the wire that turns on the bose amp :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to connect the wire that turns on the bose amp :-) in a lot of chevrolets you can make bose work by just turning it on.... but in nissans, it has to be turned on and grounded to work..... sure beats the hell out of $150 harnesses......
