Hiya, just bought an escort van and some dipsticj has cut the wires for the stereo. I cant figure it so im asking for some help please

Coming out of the car is...

2 x black/green
2 x orange/black
1 x yellow/green
1 x grey/red
1 x white/red
1 x white/black

That is it... On the back of my stereo other than speaker wires, I have a red, a black and a yellow. As the wires are cut in van, ive had to cut my adapter wires.

the only thing id sugest would be if u knew a mate or a someone with an escort have a look at theirs and maybe take a pic of it.

We had the same problem with a transit we bought last year and thats what we had to do

Your local Library will have big Ford Workshop Manuals, you can get the wiring diagram out of one of the manuals.

Hey Kristy :
Get a Haynes Manual for your vehicle should tell you everything.......about 15.00 but it worth the investment.

Chilton is a far better manual than a Haynes is.

Chilton is used by lots of Dealers and repair centers too.
