Prewired for factory sub I think
So I replaced my single disc cd player finally with a audiophile 6 disc mp3 one. This is the first time Ive ever had my cd player out the dash so I didnt know what was back there. When I pulled it out I found all three of the plugs, now I knew it was prewired for dvd player cause I found the wires over the rack a long time ago. Ive searched everywhere underneath the driver side rear seat where the wires are suppose to come out at. Is there someway they stopped the wires somewhere else when they wired it up? I mean the wire is at the HU but not where the amp goes? Any help would be greatly appricated.

Don't assume its for the sub to quickly. It might be for the sat radio module. Who knows with the big 3 mfgs these days. Might be best and get online and see if crutchfield has any diagrams for the radio harness. Or a Haynes manual with wiring diagrams.

Sounds good man, appreciate it. Im almost positive its for the sub from everything Ive read and seen on f150online. When I searched for mine the first time I just had my fingers in the L shaped slit feeling around as far as I could. I read a few posts on there where people has actually had to pull up the carpet to find the other end. One guy even just cut the L shape slit bigger and found his that way. I just got home from work so after I rest up a bit Im gonna go look again. Hopefully I just missed it the first time and its there.
BTW I drive an 05 FX4 supercrew if that makes a difference. |

I've got an 05 FX4 aswell. I upgraded my 6 CD to a Shaker 500 unit out of a mustang and I too, installed the factory sub out of a Lariat truck.
The plug for the sub at the H/U was taped to one of the support brackets on the left hand side when your looking in. There was a protective plug taped to the end of the harness to protect the ends. As for the plug at the amplifier end, mine was located by the rear seat (SuperCrew) at the slit by the leg. All I had to do, was reach in and grab the wire and pull it out, plug it in and Voila...... Awesome Sound, especially with the Shaker 500. I've heard that all the 04's were pre-wired with all the plug-in's and on the 05 models, some got the all the harnessess and some only got half. You can goto Ford and get the plug-in for the amplifier end and and just run new line from the back upto the front and attach it to the existing plug that's there. The power comes from the deck..... Hope this helps, |

Well I looked again and found the screw where the plug is suppose to be, but there is no plug. So your saying I can buy a plug that will run from the amp all the way to the HU, or just to where the wire already there ends at? Also would you happen to have the part # for it? Thanks alot man for all the help.
