Radio wiring mismatch on 98 Estima

bolder · 10th July 2008, 03:24 PM

Hi, I am in the process of changing our audio unit which has packed up on our estima. Having bought the 15 - 1 toyota lead from autoleads I switched the units only to find that the male (15-1 wire) female (toyota wiring loom) sockets were not compatible, they look similar but the pins are arranged sligly differently. Now I am stuck without a radio. I am contemplating removing the connectors and joining the wires manually - but cannot find any wiring maps that will let me know what to connect to what. Has anyone had this problem before or can suggest a solution source of information ?

Vehicle is a 98 Estima G (Previa Bodyshell).
