Nissan Radio Swap out problem

[[email protected]]

I bought a 2001 factory cd/ cassette player (not bose) for my
pathfinder to replace my 97 factory cd only player, my question is the
new has 1 more plug, not sure what it is for. Everything powers up,
just no audio.

Thanks
Chad

the extra plug may have been the EQ or possibly a remote mounted amp
plug, it most likely has multiple
connections in it.

What could possibly make you think a 2001 head would just plug right
into your '97?

All the plugs are the same, all the mountig brackets are the same.

In many cars they will.

Some cars have controls on the steering wheel to control the radio.
This extra plug may be for that or for an optional external amp.

The best thing to do would be to find a 2001 with the same radio and have a
look, it's possible a service manual might show it as well.
