OEM radio wiring
Hi: What is the function of the wire that went to pin 19 on the factory radio on my 03. When I installed the Alpine 7894 two weeks ago it was not carried on the addaptor harness that I didn't use and so is tied back in the car. The new radio is solderd in without using the addaptor and is running OK but I can't help wondering what that wire was for. I tried to install the IR interface from LUCID today and wonder if that the extra wire was some kind of a ringer involved with the dash control. The LUCID furnished SWI-X isn't allowing me to program itself.

Yes on another thread it is listed as no connection but I definately found a wire there. I wish I wrote down the color combination it was but I didn't think of it at the time.

On page 22-89 of the Helms manual for 2000-2003, wire 19 is listed as only on '02-'03 models. It's a red wire and goes to the "Dash lights brightness controller". Probably for varying the display brightness.
