I need a new harness from the amp to head unit

This is what i get for being cheap. I got a new aftermarket HU for my 94 bonne SSei, and i wanted to install it right away. So i pulled apart the dash, unplugged the factory cd player, and then did the unthinkable. I didn't want to spend the $10 or wait 2 weeks to have a wiring adapter shipped to me, so i simply cut the wiring adapter thing off. So i proceeded to wire my new head unit to the wires according to a wiring diagram. But a big problem was the fact that there are more than 1 yellow, red, blue, etc. My question: Is there any way to buy a whole new harness? I noticed that the whole bundle of wires is coming out of a box that says delco (my gain adjuster lever is also hooked into it. is it my factory amp?) and that you can un-clip the whole bundle of wires from the box. Now my radio doesnt turn on at all, and my climate control (digital) is acting very strange. it sometimes just shows three lines and wont let me adjust anything. Could i have blown a fuse, and if so , which one? or is it something far worse.. Thanks

That's a big deal. Um, I think you're going to have to get a new harness. There are a few people on here with parts cars, maybe see if you can get it from them.

Sadly, the 92-99 era Bonnevilles head unit wiring harness is part of the main body harness. I'll sell you the connector, but its won't be cheap because I would prefer to sell a complete main body harness. PM me if interested.

cant i just get a new connector from the factory amp? theres a wire that comes from the amp that leads to the gain control, head unit, and speakers. couldnt i just get a new connector? I have a SSei btw.

So i should just unplug my old one, and plug that one right into my factory amp? The only problem will be finding out where it connects to the speakers..

did you save the old harness or did you cut the wires to short to rewire it, if you still have you can rewire it or just follow the leads as they would connect to the harness.
