cigar lighter connections
Hopefully this is a very simple question. I am connecting a previously non-functioning lighter outlet, and so when I removed the unit I found three unconnected wires - brown (ground), blue/black and black/yellow. I only see two places they could connect since the ashtray was removed for iPhone cable storage. There is the center point connector in the outlet and a clip on the metal frame. Any suggestions?

Jason,
There should be a bulb harness there too.
Black/Blue goes to bulb.
Brown (note 2) for cigarette lighter and bulb.
Black/Yellow is power in to cigarette lighter.

Thanks! I figured that was the situation, however there is no bulb harness, asi suspect it was with the long gone ashtray. Once I swapped out the blue/black for the black/yellow on the lighter and connected the ground, all good!
Even better, the radio no longer cuts out at high RPMs!
