steupton 0 Posted February 17, 2010 RIGHT heres the long story (its needed) Bought an old Beat 700 dvd player for the car. (goes well with the grey n black int.) took out the old stereo and hey presto the guy who fit the old had done a right ol job of the loom. oh well. the old stereo worked perfect. on connecting up my new osi leads the player came on straight away and hey presto just a quick change. (oh so i thought) on disconnecting these i helped the new player into place and proceeded to ease in :gag: when the wires where catching at the back the player wouldnt go all the way. so i thought to myself ill pull it out when i did the wires were pulled out of the socket on the back of the stereo (yellow,black,red n blue n black) so i dissconned the iso from the back of the stereo and i dont know where they are situated in the little plug that connects to the stereo. ive gid it a go in a few combinations and everytime i plug it in and connect it up the fuse blows. even the fuse on the stereo. have i buggered the unit? or do i just need to find out what pins they are for on the stereo and cut them in the right places or would it be better to try and get a new iso lead? does anyone out there have a beat 700? or would know of where to get a new lead? ebay is usless!! cheers for all ye who read. and thanks again steve. :clap: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

V33DUB 0 Posted February 17, 2010 Might help... From another thread Thought this may be some use to people. I was looking for a guide for stereo wiring (i.e. what colour is what wire), and my mate e-mailed me the following link: http://www.installdr.com/Harnesses/VW-Wiring.pdf Hope it is of some use.

Rathion 0 Posted February 23, 2010 Here's a link to the Beat 500 (not sure if it's the same as the 700 though) wiring diagram the colours aren't actually named but with the loom in front of you you might be able to work it out. http://www.beat-audio.co.uk/files/BEAT500_manual.pdf There are some more manuals on the site one may be of help.
