What gauge wiring is used to power the clock in the dash trim in a 2003 Marauder ?
Copper strand wire gauges from AWG 10 to AWG 22? Which AWG #?

14, 16, 18 o2 20 gauge would have worked fine. Your not using that circuit to start the car.

This is the pigtail for a 2003 Marauder clock. There are 5 wires. The black is ground. What are the other wires for? Which is power?
Any help is appreciated.51595

2)BK - Ground
3)WH/VT - Voltage in run or accessory
4)BK/YE - clock (15000), signal
5)BN - Power, Exterior lamps
6)LG/YE - Voltage supplied at all times
Not sure why one is a different color? Looks like number 4? I’d just go off the diagram.

Here is a picture of the radio pigtail.
Which wires should I splice into?
Which one from the clock matches up to it?

Are any of the wire to the radio the same color?
Use a test light to verify the function.

You CAN tap these into the radio harness wiring and it's ok to use a test light back there. Your radio will have the requisite 12v, 12v in ON or ACC, Ground, and dimmer. The dimmer wire is red/blue and there is 2 of them. One is from the steering wheel, the other is from the headlight switch. You will only get voltage on it if you cover the sunload sensor on top of the dash. The radio will not dim during the day if your lights are on. The twisted wires are speaker level out. Do not probe those if plugged into the radio.
