wire after the tau.

head unit -> tau -> pac aeom-maz2 -> amp -> speakers.

 

This should be relatively straightforward but you'll have to do some soldering.

Basically the loom that comes with the PAC taps the speaker signal at the TAU (white plug) to give a line out but then allows it to continue onto the factory speakers (brown plug) - basically designed to tap a factory system to allow you to add a sub.

What you'll need to do is snip those passthrough speaker wires as close as you can to the white plug and connect the now free wires to the output of the KTP. Here's one I prepared earlier. I actually extracted the pins and soldered new cable on for a neater finish. Those new cables go to my amp output. I'm not using a KTP but the setup is the same.

Pull the factory white plug out of the TAU, insert PAC white plug, then join PAC brown plug to factory white plug, connect the RCA cables and you should be up and running.

 

😱 You’re a life saver. I’ve been looking for this for the longest and couldn’t find it anywhere. I was about to return the PAC LOC. I just finished installing a four channel Boss amp and a Rockville spare tire sub. I had already upgraded the speakers a few months ago. I love the sound. I still have to play around with and fine tune it but I’m so excited for my new system. Never thought I would say this but I can’t wait to go to work tomorrow! Lol. Thanks a lot

 

It was just like wiring any other amp when I did mine, just plug in the converter and do the mod listed up, then wire it in to the amp. I didn't even worry about the tuner amp unit.

 

Thank you so much Jasoncharged. It ended up working out but only with your help! This is the only place on the internet I found a way to complete my wiring system.

 

this is awesome. finally found this write up ive been needing to see.
i have the pac aoem maz2 but only good for sub setup. everywhere i asked, people only upgraded door speakers without adding amp as well. thank you!

 

I’m a Year late if you don’t need help anymore …
I hope this helps someone in the future!
The only purpose of white plug is so you don’t have to use wire T taps THAT’S it! Don’t overthink it 😉

Do this …
Take white plug you’ll see 8 wires!
Purple/purple with stripe
Green/green with stripe
Gray/ gray with stripe
White/ white with stripe
But there are actually 2 of each wire in same hole in the plug!
(Look at above first picture)

Cut
ONLY ONLY ONLY
1 of each of the ones I listed’

example there are 4 green wires total
2 green and 2 green with a Stripe

Cut only 1 of the green wires and 1 of the green wires w/stripe
Do the same for the purple/gray/white

Now plug white plug into TAU behind your glove box and FORGET it exists.
You are done with that plug

Now look at the Brown plug you’ll have 8 “dangling” wires

1 green 1 green w/stripe
1 purple 1 purple w/stripe
1 gray 1 gray w/stripe
1 white 1 white w/ stripe
Strip the ends of each of those “dangling”wires

NOW …behind glove box take the FACTORY plug and plug it into the brown connector

The 8 wires you stripped will now connect to the output wires on your amp..
the input signal to your amp is you just plug rca into blue box and other end to amp input


Green/ Purple are your 2 rear speakers
Gray/ white are your 2 front speakers

Solid color = positive
Color w/ stripe = Negative

EXAMPLE
Purple = positive
Purple w/stripe = negative
connect those 8 wires to the amp’
BOOM! GREAT JOB YOU DID IT!

I think What confused you
Was when he cut 1 of each color you though it cut those wires out it didn’t because remember there were 2 of each of the same color wire in the same hole on white plug’

On his brown plug all he did was take out those 8 dangling wires aka
1 green 1 green w/stripe etc and used speaker wire instead of using the colored wire’ You could do the same but it’s not needed’

Really hope it helps someone as it took a good 45 mins to try and explain lol’

 

Hi
Thanks for the explanation.

What would be the reason for Cutting only 1 of the green wires and 1 of the green wires w/stripe
Do the same for the purple/gray/white?
I mean what would be the result of this?



And for the other plug:
"Now look at the Brown plug you’ll have 8 “dangling” wires,
Strip the ends of each of those “dangling”wires

NOW …behind glove box take the FACTORY plug and plug it into the brown connector

The 8 wires you stripped will now connect to the output wires on your amp"

How The 8 wires you stripped will now connect to the output wires on your amp??
