I have the small plug that goes into the rear of the unit. it has 2 leads coming off I got this unit used and someone has replaced the wires with 2 red leads can anyone help me and tell me which lead is negative and which one is positive please. Also if you know what the other 2 pins in that plug are that would be good info to have on hand.. Hey Thanks in advance you guys and gals on this board are top notch..
I have a link here to show the plug about half way down page it says

Just from looking at the picture, and by the (+/-) markings above that jack, I'd have to guess that the pins to the left are (+) and the pins to the right are (-). BUT! That's just a guess! I think I'd try checking things with an ohm meter, power turned on/off, to see if there's any differences. The (-) pin should be the same no matter if the radio is on/off. The (+) pin should change resistance with on/off. Again, that's just a guess so don't put much faith in it at all!
