F.Y.I.. When you Remove your Factory Radio, there are two wires you need to be careful of, WHITE/ Orange and White. This are a twisted pair lines used for communications between all the modules in your jeep. After replacing the Radio with an aftermarket unit, the other modules will throw out DTCs for no communications or no messages received from the radio. Avoid shorting out these 2 lines. it will knock out the other Modules from communicating and leave your jeep Dead.
