AX-DSP T-Harness

The Axxess T-harness is a basic and simple plug-n-play harness for easy installation of the AX-DSP (sold separately) for vehicle

speciﬁc applications. Most T-harnesses created by Axxess will either have a 4-pin or 8-pin harness, with the speaker wires pinned.

If you are installing a 4-channel ampliﬁer with the AX-DSP, leave these connectors disconnected. The only reason for connecting

these harnesses together would be if the AX-DSP is being used for adding a subwoofer ampliﬁer only. Some T-harnesses require

additional wiring and/or installation steps. Refer to the following page for a pinout legend for the 20-pin harness, and also

additional wiring and notes.

ADDITIONAL WIRING & NOTES AX-DSP-CH5: There will be an extra harness included that will need to be connected to allow audio from the radio when installing the AX-DSP and a 4-channel amplifier. Newer Chrysler radios need a load on the speaker lines to provide audio out. This extra harness provides that resistor load.
