    I want to upgrade to an in dash DVD player. I need the wiring schematic for the existing Fosgate system. I attempted a hit or miss method of applying 1.5V DC to the various wires on the harness in an attempt to locate the variouse speakers. I am guessing that I damaged something between the stereo and the display that shows the outside temperature and the current cd/radio station/radio status. I re-installed the stereo. The stereo sounds the same an functions great short of the fact that I no longer receive an AM signal and the display now says com error. I checked all fuses and wires and everything appears fine. I don't need the display any more (assuming I can get the wiring diagram) but I would like to fix the current problem for future resale. Any help with either problem would be greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to the site!

    I am not familiar with that sytem, but i will say this, the application of voltage in the wrong spot can do serious harm to electronics.

    What you did probably wont blow any fuses, just blow out sensitive electronic components. Unfortunatly

    As for the schematics....I am sure someone more up to date on the current cars (like Ranger perhaps) will be able to help you out if they can.

    I'm just curious, were you able to locate any speaker wires?

    I am not familiar with the 07 (no Mitsu Dealer in town), but for now I'm gonna assume its like all othe Eclipse. Is there an amp under the passenger seat?

    The info I have for the 06 and 07 is blank, I'll run an update on my Info in a couple of minutes and see if there is any new info

    With out any info here is how I would procede. First gain access to your front and rear speakers, write down all the speaker wire colors. Are those colors (all of them) behind your radio, if not there is an amp. Is there a center channel speaker above your display unit, if so there is an amp. You need to locate the amp.

    I am not sure if we can intergrate into the amp or if we have to bypass the amp, I will look into it first thing in the morning

    This is all I have and its the wrong year

    I ran an update and still no info is available for the 07. Sorry. But there is an amp intergration harness available for the 05 Eclipse.

    Do an internet search for Metra 70-7003. Do your plugs look like these?
