someone else on the12volt.com forum also confirmed that its the antenna wire, but one question i have is, do i supposed to suspend the wire up high above the brain ? to recieve signals better ? or not ?

i did a search on google, and did see on a couple car alarm install guides, how it described that the brain has an antenna wire coming out of it, i just did'nt know that before, also it does'nt say anything about the antenna wire in the wire diagram for the alarm i have ?, which is dumb ...

heres a link to a picture of the wire i'm talking about, that comes from the brain the white wire and heres a link to the wire diagram for the clifford arrow 2, (i don't see it show anything about that wire on it?) wire diagram for arrow 2

i don't understand ?, an antenna ?, i did'nt know alarms had antennas ?, sounds like something on a head unit ?, or is it some type of antenna that recieves the signal from the remotes at a certain distance range ?, or what ?, and i did open up the brain box and the white...

on the brain unit for the clifford arrow II, there is a white wire coming out of the side of it, and it is all by itself, and is'nt coming out of main harness clip like all the others are ? cause that white wire is cut on mine ?, and trying to remember if maybe it was for the wires that...

i ended up figuring everything out, i used a multimeter to test and find out which wire was for ignition and constant on the stock harness, and i found where the wire for my antenna was, and hooked it to the head unit, i grounded the black wire from the pioneer harness directly to a bare sanded...

thanks for replying, i will check fuses, i replaced dome light fuse a while ago, and i am not using an amp or anything to turn it on remotely, so don't need blue wire, and i'll cap it off, and my car does'nt have a power antenna either, some people said the orange/white...

i'm installing my first head unit and wanted to make sure i'm covering everything, not leaving anything out? my car is a 1990 Honda CRX Si, a couple years ago my car was broken into and they stole my head unit and my amps and they cut the factory stereo harness plug off. someone on the12volt...

well, thanks for the replies and for explaining it all and letting me know what works and what won't work, after looking around ebay and amazon and reading reviews, i have found a head unit that would be just what i'm looking for, and new for only $30 !!, which i can afford, its a Pyle...

i actually copied this same post and posted it to the12volt.com forum also, so i could get double the feedback, and someone replied saying i would need an amp in order to be able to do what i wanted hooking mp3 player into inputs of equilizer, but i mentioned to him i had an alpine head...

i just wanted to see opinions or what people thought, i am not that experienced with installing head units or eq's, but its something i can do if i wanted to, as long as i make sure i am doing it right, and read stuff off the internet, mostly, the part i did'nt get is how the sound...

car is a 90 honda crx si, i have'nt had a radio for 2 yrs since it was stolen, i can't afford to buy a new one, my friend said it might be possible to us my old 7-band clarion equilizer to connect an mp3 player into the rca inputs of it and listen to music through the speakers in my...

my car is a 1990 Honda CRX Si, and it has a Clifford Arrow II alarm system, which a shop installed back in 1999. the alarm works fine except one problem that has to do with the feature that flashes the parking lights....... sometimes after arming or disarming, the parking lights get...
