Dodge Ram truck radio wiring help

[david_p...@my-deja.com]

Hi
A friend of mine gave me his radio from a Dodge
Ram truck, a 1998 version, has am/fm casette but
he clipped the wires in the back and I need to
know what wires connect to power, speakers, etc.
It has 2 flat connectors near the top, one on the
right with 6 wires , one on the left with 7
wires, has a Chrysler Corporation tag with a part
number Po4858531, S/N T53AH3565J1183, issue 2,
date code 3565, supplier 07910.

Any assistance will be much appreciated

Thanks

You are correct at least as far back as 84......we have a 92 radio in an 84
van.

Oh man, isn't that unusual, the guy cut the wiring harness in his truck for
you! I always have to go to the junk yard to harvest those plugs. Anyway, here
