2014 Forester Radio wiring

[TonyWilson]

Can anyone help with the wiring diagram for the head unit connector on the '14 Forester. I've a new head unit I want to install, but can't find a pin-out for it. ea64 only goes up to '11 plate models, and the Crutchfield harness doesn't include the steering controls. 

Any ideas?

 

Cheers in advance,

Tony

Your motor is too new for my experience ;o) this link may get you a manual with pin outs it it but you will need a model number

Cheers for that Jay, it doesn't list the model number for mine though (PF-3492). I'll keep looking, but many thanks for the help.

Having done a search on the model code you provided, the main connector (White Top left on yours) looks exactly the same as mine (White Bottom right). Now whilst I would not want to make an immediate assumption they are exactly the same it may give you a starter for ten working through the pins themselves.

Mine Clarion PF2945

Yours Clarion pf- 3492

 

Pin out for the pf 2945 highlighted in red refers to the white connector in question - ignore the other connectors as that is for cd players etc

Thanks for that, using that pin-out you’ve pictured and ea64’s guide I’ve managed to work through them and sort which pin is what. New head unit installed and working perfectly. Cheers again for your help on this

Hi Tony I think I am having exactly the same issue that you did. Was yours a 2014 forester non nav version? What colour were the steering wheel control wires? We’re they green on your car? Many many thanks

Hi John.

Apologies for not replying mate, I didn't realise that you'd posted on here.

Off the top of my head I can't remember, however, I'll be pulling the head unit out later this week as I've since replaced it with a Kenwood and will be connecting a dash cam to it. If you're still needing an answer I'll check the wiring colours and let you know.
