And now with falling fuel prices they want to cut production to stop a gallon of gas from from getting any cheaper. But even when gas prices hovered over $3, Hummer sales, especially the H3 continued to rise. And with the newly opened South African plant, and with strong hints of a forthcoming H4, the HUMMER name continues its forward momentum.

The wire colors on my vehicle do not match the colors in your diagram. What do I do?
Unfortunately vehicle manufactures frequently change the color of the wires in their wiring harnesses. The wire that we need locate is the factory door-ajar signal located inside each door. You can find this circuit by removing the door panel and physically tracing the wires leading to the door latch / switch. Once you have located the bundle of wires that go to the switch you will need to isolate the door-ajar circuit. This circuit will be a “negative switching” circuit. Negative switching indicates that the circuit will be in a “ ground “ state where the circuit is connected to the minus or negative side of the battery with the door open (Except 02 – 03 Ford Super Duty and 08 Ford Super Duty where the circuit is closed to ground with the door shut). With the door closed the circuit will sometimes show a very small amount of current or nothing at all.

The Install Doctor STRONGLY recommends using a snap on wire harness adapter when replacing the auto makers factory installed radio with a new replacement radio. These snap on wire harness adapters are custom designed to plug into the auto makers indash radio wire harness that originally plugged into the rear of the auto makers factory radio. Because each snap on wire harness is custom designed to fit only a specific auto makers indash wire harness, these are not included with new replacement radios but can be purchased separately.
