NBT Quadlock Wire Color Help

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to get the AUX and MIC1/MIC2 working with my car.

Currently I know that to get the AUX to work it is:

Pin 30 AUX IN Left
Pin 35 AUX IN Right
Pin 36 AUX IN GND

For Mic 1:

Pin 17 MIC 1 (+)
Pin 22 MIC 1 (-)

For Mic 2:

Pin 18 MIC 2 (+)
Pin 19 MIC 2 (-)

But how do I know which color wire is which?

For color I have AUX:

Blue
Gray
Brown

For Mics I have:

Black
White
Gray

Yellow
White
Gray

I don't know which one is MIC1 and MIC2

Anyone know where to get this information?

Actually you are the one who originally gave me that information. Which was very helpful.

Now I just need to know which color is which so I can make sure I'm plugging the right wires in.

Are you worried about how to wire the mic side since the pins for the quad lock side are already available.

If so don't worry you can swap them around on the mic side if the called person can't hear you and you won't damage the mic or the NBT.

Yea I didn't want to put them in wrong and cause any damages. If there's no worries then I will just test until it works

So from my research I concluded the following:

Pin 30 AUX IN Left - Gray
Pin 35 AUX IN Right - Blue
Pin 36 AUX IN GND - Brown
Pin 39 AUX Shield - Not Used

For Mic 1 (Driver side):

Pin 17 MIC 1 (+) - Gray
Pin 22 MIC 1 (-) - White
Pin 33 Shield - Black

For Mic 2 (Passenger):

Pin 18 MIC 2 (+) - Yellow
Pin 19 MIC 2 (-) - White
Pin 25 Shield - Black

Although, testing the mics, everything worked fine but after plugging everything in and putting everything back together; the mics stopped working.

I coded HU_NBT for 6NS and I don't have 6NH in the VO.

I also have HU_NBT->3002 AUDIO_TUNER_TRAFFIC, 96
->MICROPHONE_NUMBER set to wert_2. Not sure if that matters or not.

Any ideas anyone?

I doubt it would be coding if the mic worked before u put every back.Have you tried going over the cabling and mic connectors to make sure they not just pinched somewhere or the connectors have come loose somehow.

They did come loose. Sorry for the inconvenience. But I can verify that these colors are the correct pins for an CIC to NBT retrofit if you want two mics working.

Next is AUX
