Default Amplifier turn on wire color?

I am installing a Pioneer AVH DVD in my 2004 XType. I need to connect a wire from the car factory harness that is for Amplifier Turnon function. In my Ford trucks there is a blue/white (blue wire with white stripe) and Pioneer manual calls for that same color wire as well. Anyone know what color wire from Jaguar wire harness serves this function for Amplifier turn on?

Thanks Dell. Full disclosure , the reason I wanted to know is I am hooking a micro bypass instead of the parking brake wire on my Pioneer AVH unit I installed today. Instructions say to connect it to blue/white wires. Turns out I didn’t need a blue/white wire from car wiring harness but hooked the micro bypass blue wire to the Pioneer radio harness blue/white wire per instructions and it functioned perfectly. DVD will play while waiting in car pool line without having to set parking brake. ��. By the way Microbypass.com customer service responded to an email on Sunday within 10 mins and answered my question about wires. Excellent support.

Also the Axxess ASWC-1 steering wheel control interface worked perfectly with the Jaguar buttons after it auto programmed. I bought everything from Crutchfield and also the Metra 70-9500 wiring harness. Very happy with how it looks and performs.

Next up is to add an Esky rear view backup license plate camera I ordered.

Have a look at attached wiring diagram - hope this helps


It's connecter CA425 - Grey. Pins 3&9 will be power, both will be NR - N is Brown, R is red, so it will be Brown with red stripe. For the D2B network " wake up " signal, is on same connector, Pin 5, which is O - orange wire.
