Electrical - how to find unused REAR SPEAKER wiring on RT
Posted: Sat Apr 15, 2006 1:15 am
I want to use the presently unused rear speaker outlet on my RT and connect it up to AutoCom. Then I'll be able to use the radio's fader to switch between front (dingle speakers) and rear (AutoCom for helmet).
Previous topics indicated that even tho there are no REAR Speakers fitted to an RT, the standard Radio/Cassette comes with a plug for them. I imagine for when the unit is used on an LT which naturally has rear speakers for pillion comfort. lol
Now... I've removed the left tupperware and can see what's behind (a big step for me - I've been mustering the courage for 12months).
I can see the radio housing (a glove box in another life).
It has a hole in the front of it, through which come three sets of insulated covered wiring. There are two sets (one thick and the other thin) both covered in wrapped insulating material. These two go to visible terminal blocks. The third is slight and appears to be regular black hosing, it winds it's way up past the terminal blocks and up into the dingle; I suspect it's the wiring to the front (dingle) speakers.
If any of you clever fellas can help me locate the unused rear speaker plug I'd be grateful. Seems I've pulled the thing apart and don't know where to go from here.
