FOMOCO Radio
#9

(09-10-2015, 08:07 PM)unit91 Wrote:  I need to test this radio and need help in the wiring connections. 

There are two sets of wires coming from the radio.  One set is blue with red stripe that goes to a bulb, and yellow with black stripe that goes into radio. The other set is black, and black with green stripe - both go into radio. 

I want to connect radio to 12V power and a car speaker I have.  I have a 120 volt ac power converter that will convert to 12V DC.  It has positive and negative leads. 

Can anyone give me some help with the connections?  Thanks.

I've looked at some Ford wiring diagrams but am still lost.

The yellow wire goes to the positive side of your power supply, as does the blue wire.  The other 2 black wires go to each side of the speaker.  The negative lead from your power supply connects the the radio chassis (screw head, chassis bracket, etc.) for ground.
