General Stereo Stolen help needed with wire colours!

[SFSTURBO]

Hi, I've had the Stereo Stolen from my 2004 Fiat Punto Active, thief cut wires rather than unplugging the iso plug. I have managed to match up the 8 speaker cables. I have five wires left that I need to account for.
Brown
Pink/white
Red/white
Grey
Black
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

The best thing I can think of would be to go to a scrappy find same car as yours age and model. Locate the cars ISO plug and cut it off with some wires left dangling. Then go to your car and solder the matching colors together as the cars are same age etc colors will be straight match solder together heats hirink the solder connection to prevent short circuits. Then you have a standard ISo plug the way it should be.

Hope this helps

The Black is the Earthing Cable Negative
Grey is the antenna Wire - for things like activation of the subwoofers
Since its a 2004 its going to be a Canbus controlled stereo
So the Pink/white wire which is thinner then the rest is 1 of the 2 Canbus cables i believe

The brown - i dont have a brown? Bad sign of overheating?
the rest im not sure about - but the black is always negative in modern cars

Welcome to the forum.

This is exactly what i would do. Infact I had to do the same on my Bravo because the previous owner cut the plug off to wire in a stereo. Infact the scrap man let me have that part for free.

If you solder the wires you could even slip some heat shrink tube on the wires before soldering. You can get packs of small heatshrink tube at Most motorfactors or even the Range.
