Ok , I changed out the "Premium Sound"original radio on my 87 BII a few weeks ago , when i removed the factory radio there was a heavier ga. red wire attached to a stud dead center on the back metal part of the radio.
I tested this to the dash that the radio was bolted to and got 12 volts .
I installed the stereo without connecting this wire and all works.
So it was a wire with 12 volts connected to a grounded dash ?
I capped it off and left it as is.
Should it be connected to ground ?
Am I missing something ?
