Just put this radio in. The ignition wire for 2006 GMC Savana is Pink and power is being driven from the firewall direction. A simple connection with the 3 wires has me back in business. Same radio installed. Feels cheap but does the job. Thanks for the video!
For anyone watching this in the future, buy the Metra or Scosche wiring harnesses (Amazon or Crutchfield), you have to run the red ACC wire to an accessory source (I used a fuse tap in to tap into the Instrument panel cluster fuse on the engine fuse box, do not use fuses that are integral for vehicle operation or safety, you will lose door chimes and Onstar. 2010 Chevy Express 2500), and for the love of god at least use butt connectors when connecting wires together.
Man I finally find this radio in the same year van I have. All I wanted to know is if it fits in the dash. You rig the entire wire harness for 10 mins and don’t even use the dash kit. 🤦♂️ ugghhhh I’d be embarrassed to show the quality of work. FAIL FAIL FAIL.
I have problems I can’t get my 06 gmc savanna I installed JVC big screen radio and radio doesn’t turn off and drains my battery can someone please help me out please
Hey man idk if I wired this incorrectly but the power is staying on after I turn my truck off (I have a 04 silverado) and it's draining my battery, you know a way to fix this?
DO NOT tap into the creme color wire. Your radio will only come on when the a/c is on. Tap into the brown wire on the harness plug just to the right for switched power.

orange wire is usually reverse or illumination dimmer wire
tried to put one of these in my 2000 express and its so narrow its impossible to actually install into the space.

I have problems I can’t get my 06 gmc savanna I installed JVC big screen radio and radio doesn’t turn off and drains my battery can someone please help me out please
you need to use a power wire from the AC/Heat Control panel or find a wire that turns off when you turn the ignition off.
WHATS GOOD BRO. HAVE YOU DONE THIS TO CHEVY 2013 EXSPRESS? IT HAS TWO HARNESS INSIDE TWO WERE CONNECTED TO THE FACTORY RADIO.
One is for power to the radio and the other one with green, blue and light blue are for the speakers
Can U wire the radio yellow wire to that top heat yellow wire instead of the red wire cux the bottom already has the red wire to it.
Illumination Dash

you have to find a wire that has no power when the ignition is off...i used a wire coming from my ac/heater control panel
@You Can Fix That ok, so find a wire that isn't a continously powered?
@@lukebalensiefen2388 yes
No volume coming from my dual XVM279BT
Are the speakers good? Did you have sound from the original radio with original speakers
I need the connection with the harness
DO NOT tap into the creme color wire. Your radio will only come on when the a/c is on. Tap into the brown wire on the harness plug just to the right for switched power.
And when you turn your AC off your radio turns off
I used a wire that only turns off when the ignition is turn off. ✔️💥
Link for the exact radio please? Thank you
