Installing Factory Sirius
 

I am still trying to figure out how to install the Ford Factory Sirius tuner that I bought on ebay. I figured out where it mounts...just now so sure of the wiring connections.

Sorry for the sloppy image below, but best I could do. Does anyone know what the connections are for? I know "A" fits into the back of the radio, but would have to remove a connector from the truck harness in order to have an opening for it. I could not find anywhere in the truck for "B" to fit Any ideas?

The harness you have is odd I have never seen one like that. Is there a pass trough for the 16 pin plug. because I happen to know of a harness that will work for you. It is a "T" harness that will supply power and ground. It would take some minor modifacation but it will be just plug and play after. If you google 2U6F-14588-BA it will bring up a couple of sites. This part # is made to work with the old visteon sirius tuner but you can easily make it work the dephi sirius tuner. Let me know if you are interested, and i will let you know what you need to do.

I have the same kind of harness shown in okstategrad2002's pictures. I bought the factory headunit, factory sirius tuner, and factory harness as a set on eBay for my 05 Lariat Supercrew. I was told they came out of an '06.

The part numbers I have are:
Headunit: 6L3T-18C815-FE
Sirius Tuner: 6L3R-18C963-AE
Harness: 6L3T-14K024-AE (this one's difficult to read)

I can't figure out where to connect the smaller connector on the harness (labeled 'B' in the picture). There is nothing on the HU that it would fit, so I suppose it is meant to connect into the truck's harness - but I don't seee the male version of this connector anywhere behind the dash. The two wires going into this small connector are black/green and lt green/violet.

Any ideas??? Thanks in advance for any help.

I can tell you that on my truck--06 with factory sirius the two wire plug goes to a connector on the right hand side of the stereo support bracket ---although I dont know for sure what they are I suspect power and ground. I hope to find out because I have taken the tuner out of my truck ---like the options s50 have better --but plan to use the tuner in my wifes freestyle.

update ---just installed mine in my wifes freestyle the small connector is indeed a power and ground I just tapped into the light power and grounded it to the main support bar behind radio ---black with stripe is ground --everything works great hardest part was running the antenna wire --all the presets are actually saved in the sirius tuner ---which was cool didnt need to reprogram all of them.

i need help with sirius install
 

I have a 2006 F150 with the 6cd HU. i have the sirius tuner that I purchased with the 6cd HU. But I had no harness to connect from the HU to the sirius tuner. I was told to purchase the 2u6f-14588-ba harness, which i did, but it does not fit the sirius jack. What do I need to do to make this work?? Please help...

which pigtail?
 

what pigtail did you buy or use?

Contact speedometer service 1-800-241-2385 part # may be not sure 6632-14588-AA

Don't go to speedometer they want $15 for the cable. The ford dealer only wants $12.72 for it.:banana:

The right part# is 6L3Z-14588-AA:rocker:

Sat Plug
 

Are The Plugs On A Both Female?


Thanks

I have this same unit and for the life of me I cannot find where this little plug goes myself????

Guys it plugs into the back of the cig liter plug on the 05 06 models...
It is for power and on my 04 I will need to GO FISH to find a hot wire...
Why do I feel like I am posting to myself in here?

Well bhaaaaaaaaa It will not work on an early 04 Radio 6 disk changer audiophile..... Software for Sat radio not in the early model we r guessing
But the good news is the guy I bought it from on E Bay is awsome he worked me through it..... So far I think... When I get out the other side I will post.
