Try this.-> DCP-Wiring.pdf (application/pdf Object)
Or maybe this one.-> The Install Doctor - The Do-It-Yourself Car Stereo Installation Resource

Usually the pwr cable is red and the negative (gnd) is black. There should also be an additional pwr cable giving you 12 volts constantly for the memory in your radio. To see where each speaker wire leads, just take a 1.5 battery and connect one end of the wire to the pos end of the battery and the second wire to the neg end of the battery. The speaker will than produce a small noice. Hope this will help. Leon in Iceland
