This is really the only video I’ve found that fully explains everything and doesn’t just skip things, as well as being helpful along the way
Agreed!
This is probably the most helpful video I've seen so far. Thanks!
Nice vid thx! Would have been nice to see the finished installation with the panel back in complete.
Yeah I'm not sure why I wouldn't have shown that lol damn impatient kids 😂
Thanks for the video. I was able to install an aftermarket radio. What I was having trouble at first was the aftermarket radio not Turning on and since I had the limited version with the infinity system I had more wires and other stuff that you didn’t had. Well what I did was I hooked up the ground from the car to the ground on the stereo, also connected the blue with white wire from the aftermarket to the blue and blue and white wire from the wiring harness and that fixed everything I had trouble with. Thanks👍
The video was great and very helpful. I installed the same stereo in my '01 a couple of days ago (first time even attempting that type of thing) and wanted to be sure I got it all right. Judging by your video, I'm pattin' myself on the back :). Thanks bunches!!
FINALLY!! a good & descriptive installation video!!
You saved me 65 bucks great video , took 20 minutes thanks bro
Glad to help!
Awesome video! Saved me like $125! I went to a car audio store and they told me I'd have to buy a special wiring harness for my '04 grand Cherokee special edition, which would be $150 plus install. I really appreciate the help!! Keep up the good work
Tech Tip*** you can hook the pink wire from the ASWC-1 to the brown lead on the wiring harness for the jeep. It lines up with the Blue/yellow wire. So you won't need to splice the Blue/yellow, and the factory wires stay untouched. Thank you great video. I could not find which ASWC-1 wire to hook-up, or factory wire. Pink and the Yellow/blue was the winner, and my JVC is working great. Rock on.
Thanks! I may be putting an aftermarket radio with Bluetooth in my '02 Grand Cherokee I just purchased. This helps a lot (:
Thank You. Had to swap my broke radio in my 2004 Grand Cherokee and video helped for a quick swap out
Tony - Muy buen video. Completo y con las alternativas de adaptacion en amazon. Para no hacer remiendos. Muy bueno, Very Good..
If you have the Infinity system with the factory amp, you have to hook the Blue wire to the Blue and White wire on the other harness. This will power the factory Amp. If you do not do this you will not have any sound.
Thanks for the awesome video, made it all a bit easier!
Thanks for clarifying, I thought I mentioned blue goes to blue in the video but maybe the white stripe is throwing people off.
+PkwyDr possibly, may have just missed it. You had a aftermarket amp so it did not click at first
+Morgan Glassco Yeah, I actually still had the OEM amp too. That one powered the speakers while the aftermarket one powered the subs.
hook the blue wire from the deck to the blue and white one on the harness that didn't get used ?
Eerm I connected my blue for the amp to the ignition wire because my blue and white is for my wireless controller it's got a piece of tape over it "wireless remote not power wire" from the factory
Very informative. Just don't forget to hook up that ground! I forgot on a 1988 Plymouth and I ended up catching the CD player on fire...
Thanks!! I used your video and I installed it in my 2000 Grand Cherokee.
Kinda glad someone has the same car i do and its possible thanks
I got a radio ebay put it in and a week later the volume don t work.i use the vol on steering wheel. might be something loose . when I got it outa bix it looked to be unplugged or attatched so I just pushed it back together.everyhing seemed good .I replaced a cd / tape combo with a cd player. not sure if I wanna undo it all and take a risk of not being g able to get it back safety. I was shocked I got it out & in by myself without mucking up.lol the dash trim was hard to get back in and dont fit in as tight.i think it's not in straight seems to bulge in I corner and not be flush. but hey ur vid put me back on the music. I'm grateful to u for dat!!
That is so helpful video I've seen so far.Thanks!
You're very welcome!
Excellent video. So helpful.
Was going to take my jgc to a shop to get done, now that I see you don't have to take the whole dash off like I had to on my 00 blazer, I may attempt it myself! Thanks for being so thorough in your explanations!!
Glad to help 👍
You sir....are a badass the video helped a bunch man, thank you
Haha thanks, glad it helped you out!
Great video man
Good video.
I'm watching this video so I can remove the aftermarket Kenwood unit and put the stock radio back in. Because I freakin hate aftermarket radios lol
Dude, spot on. Thank you. I even got the steering wheel control module working on the first try. I'd be pissed off, halfway through installation, cursing at a manual right now if u didn't make this video.
Awesome video
Would you mind putting together a list of the items you used in this video?
super helpful thank you!!
thanks bro I was thinking about going there
You did so nice and easy to install New Redio ... I did same way as you did ... but I having trouble ... please how do i connect steering wheel connector ...
SmAfzalur - Did you watch the part at 10:30?
dam. mine didn't come with that faceplate thing, it just had the square piece that you stated was for older models. and it wasn't wide enough so it has a small gap on each side.
excellent installation video. Thanks to you now I have new aftermarket head unit and new set of 4 speakers. I want to upgrade the amp and get a subwoofer, do you know how can I replace the factory infinity gold amp? Do I need aftermarket connectors in order to retain the factory ones? Thank you in advance for your help.
+Alex Escobar I left the factory amp alone when I did my subs, as they only power the speakers. I then added another amp to power just the subs.
I like it!
Do you have a vid on how you installed the subs?
Thank you!!
I did not make a video for the subs, as there are so many different variables and different set ups that people run.
Good video.
Great video i just brought a 04 jeep grand Cherokee 2 questions where is the best place to ground the black wire? And what is the type of scoshe radio is tjat ?
The radio itself is actually a Sony, not a Scosche. The Scosche is just an installation tool kit which I have a link for in the video description. As far as the ground, if there’s a black wire coming from the vehicle, hook it to the black on the radio. If there’s no black coming from the vehicle, just do what I did and put a ring terminal on the end of the wire. Then you can use one of the factory screws to secure the ground wire to the metal panels in the dash. OR you can run the black wire to your battery ground terminal which would probably be the best.
It was a great video. Thank you but as the stereo that installed was smaller than the original stereo, what do you do with the gap?
Filler panel 😁
Do I need all these adapter pieces if I don't get this type of stereo
Lost the buzzing when I put in my after market deck stock one gave all kinds of feed back
This is a nice tutorial video, but I do have a question concerning installation parts.Can any stereo be used?
Thanks!
D_ Singleton21 You can pick what ever streo you want, should be similar steps.
Very informative. Does the filler panel fit for JVC stereo? I just bought JVC single din built in Bluetooth
The same filler panel SHOULD work for all single din radios.
Can you post the links of where you got the accessories? ?... I am installing a double din soon and would like the correct parts....thanks awsome video
Just posted all the part numbers into the video description.
Nice video thanks
Very nice information got here!
I've got 1 question... Will this steering controller work for after market DVD or something like that? I'm thinking about installing a DVD on my 03 Grand Cherokee....
I'm not 100% on that but I would guess as long as the DVD deck has the main black power plug like the back of my deck had and assuming you wire everything else right, I don't see why it wouldn't work.
GRACIAS DESDE SEVILLA ESPAÑA
Would all the merta parts work on a 2001 jeep grand Cherokee limited edition?
When I come to buy the metra parts they say 2002-2004
Really preciate the video keep up the great work
I don't see why it wouldn't work. Mine was a limited as well, just an '04 and I'm pretty sure they're the same.
Thank you!
so, if you connect your interface to control the volume on the stereo in the audio jack, and you have an stereo that has a microphone, you could only connect only one?
Correct, unless someone makes a splitter cable so you can plug both in.
yeah they sell these radio install kits for 19$Walmart. scosche and another brand.or u can get the prybar kit for 8$
I watched the entire vid hoping to see how it looked on the dash. What kit did you use bcz if you install the stereo you will still have the vents exposed and it won't look very nice
I guess I'm not sure what vents you mean. The actual air vents for A/C and heat will remain. As far as the radio, the filler panel sits pretty much perfectly flush with the rest of the dash panel and the only part of the radio that sticks out a bit is the faceplate for the deck. It's as clean of an install as you'll get. Here's a link to the stereo install on my Dakota which uses the exact same filler panel and radio, skip to the 19:00 mark and you can see how it looks. th-cam.com/video/qpg7FTMBTRU/w-d-xo.html
My 03 doesn't have steering wheel controls. But has the infinity sound system with amp. Do I still need to purchase a special interface?
Wow I think that’s the first time I’ve heard of premium audio with no steering controls lol. The interface (ASWC-1) is just for the steering controls, so you shouldn’t need that.
Amazing!!! Amazing!!!
I know this has been years since you made this vid but I’m currently installing one now. On the adapter there is a solid blue wire and on the wires of the new stereo there is a blue wire with a white stripe. Do I connect these or leave it
That SHOULD be the signal wire for your aftermarket amp if you have one, otherwise I don’t think blue is necessary to connect. I would connect the rest and test the radio before popping it into place first though just in case blue does need to be hooked up for some reason
Buzzing is probably rca cables to close to power wire. Its called alternator wine thats why it changes with rpm of vehicle
Do you know how to stop this, I'm having this issue
@@spencerkeating7418 run power,remote,ground together 6-10 inches apart from the rca cables. Should stop the bleed over.
Where do you ground the blAck wire im having so much trouble only gotten it to work plugged into the amp wire but I have an after market sub and wanna use that
Jarred Owen The black wire is ground, splice it to the factory black wire on the vehicle side or hook it to something metal in the dash.
My jeep has a pinout for a cd changer thats located in the back. The wiring harness that i bought has a orange wire that goes to nothing and nothing for the cd changer's pinout.
Yeah I can't recall without watching my video. It I don't think I connected an orange either.
buddy is so stoned i love it
I actually wasn’t lol
@@TonyTheTruckGuy awww
@@xxspychickenxxx9018 But that was then. I do partake occasionally now lol. I get drug tests randomly so I’ve been sticking with delta-8/HHC
Where did you get the mount that fully ready and set . The ones I fine is a kit and I have to put together .Because I'm looking everywhere and I seem to not find one .
+Samuel Figuereo I had to put the metal and plastic pieces together as demonstrated in the video. I purchased all of my supplies at Best Buy.
On the WJ 99-04 grand Cherokees do u kno if u can still use the factory volume controls on the steering wheel with an aftermarket headlight or only with the stock one?
Skip to 10:35 in the video.
This is overall a good video, but just a tip, most people wire up the harness at a table in their house then just plug it in.
there arent connections on the radio the place 2 connect the harnnes 2 the radio are wide and the same width cant tell if tall or skinny maybe i can return radio so the back will match the harness
I’m very confused now. Do you have a Facebook or anything? I have an account on there you could post a picture of what you’re talking about.
My jeep doesn’t come with that other connection that went in the other stereo . I have the jeep grand Cherokee Laredo now the new stereo won’t play any sound ?
Second connector may have been because I had the premium sound system with the 10 disc changer and amp. Make sure all of your wires are connected properly and not loose or crimped on the wiring insulation. Verify good constant and switched 12v power for the red and yellow wires, and make sure your black wire is going to a known hood ground.
Great video man. Looking at doing this myself, just have a few questions first.
With the fascia - did you mount the radio bracket to it, or did it come with the bracket attached?
If buying an after market head unit, most likely a Sony like yours - what becomes of the factory amp? does it work in conjunction with the new head unit? or is it null and void?
I had to put the metal radio bracket into the filler panel and bent the tabs up as shown in the video to secure it. I never noticed a decrease in sound quality when i added the deck so I'm pretty sure the amp was still doing it's thing.
PkwyDr brilliant mate. thanks for that. I saw the metal tab movement, but it looked solid as with the chin installation before it was mentioned haha
PkwyDr
That's odd. When I went to buy a wire harness, they told me I would also need to buy an amplifier bypass wire adapter or something like that. I was told that an aftermarket head unit can't power the stock amplifier. After watching your video it seems as if some head units actually can power it. Guess I'll wire it up normally and see if it works before spending the extra money on the additional amp bypass stuff. They also told me it would probably be easier to run new speaker wire from the new head unit directly to the speakers, or to an aftermarket, 4 channel, mid range amp.
Not sure, but this Sony worked no problem.
following this video allowed me to install a new model Kenwood. Being Australian, the names and models of the chords were different, but managed to find them OK. Now installed sounds good, stock amp ran it fine. Just the original speakers sound like **** when turned up a bit.
Anyone done a speaker upgrade?
I installed a boss bv9976b into my 04 Cherokee, but have no sound, reconnected factory stereo speakers work fine, any suggestions
Re-installed factory speakers or factory deck?
What if instead of just the face of the new stereo, you have the entire box of it as well. I have a 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee and I was just wondering if your be able to help me out or if I'm better off having someone else install?
What do you mean the entire box? Like a double din or touch screen radio?
Hi Tony.
I have a JGC 2000 and connect my aftermarket but there is no sound. Is there a harness connection I have missed? I watched your video, and the connections seem ok.
Are you sure you've connected each corresponding colored wire properly? The black wire needs to be grounded and the blue wire goes to the blue wire with white stripe. Also make sure your wire connections are good.
ill see about one thanks
i know this is an old video, but just taking a shot. I bought a wire harness and it has two 12v constant yellow wires. there is only one yellow on the harness that came with the aftermarket stereo. do i run both yellow to the single yellow or just tape one off and run 1 to 1
If you have a red and 2 Yellow’s, I’d tape off one of the yellows. Kind of strange it has 2, I haven’t run into that before.
very helpful, but I did everything you said and I'm getting power to the radio but I'm not getting anything out of my speakers, could the stock factory Infinity amp be affecting anything?
The amp could be bad but if everything worked before you swapped the radio then I find that unlikely unless you crossed some wires and blew a fuse. See if there's a fuse on the amp and check the ones on the radio itself. If all fuses are good then check the Jeep fuse panel and see if the radio one is blown. If your issue still isn't resolved, you must have a crossed wire, bad ground or no power at your yellow and red wires.
You have to hook up the Blue wire to the Blue and White wire. That will power on the Infinity amp that is stock and you will get sound.
and would you be able to help me,? I don't know if there is a wire specifically for the CD player itself but everything on my radio works except for the CD player the CD player was in my car 2002 Mitsubishi Galant which worked in that and my Jeep is a 99 Grand Cherokee Laredo and won't work in here
+Brandon B. Irish Doesn't make sense. As long as the rest of the radio is functioning the CD should work, if not, the CD player is junk.
+Brandon B. Irish make sure you hooked up ground and remote amp wires (black.... blue)
Hello and thanks for the video. I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 2002 with a amplified system, Infinity amp, do I have to bypass or get a new harness wires to work with the amp. Someone recomended this harness to for the amp, Metra 70-6503 Radio Wiring Harness for Chry/Dodge 02 Amp Int.
Just get exactly what I used and it will work. Mine was a Limited with the premium sound system as well.
+PkwyDr It worked. Your video helped me a lot, thanks
i have same as you, did your system work ok?
My harness has 2 plain yellow wires but the actual connector only has one so should I connect all 3 together or just choose one?
Casey Spivey That's odd. I would choose one then if that don't work then try the other one.
Do I have to get antenna adapter that fits my new stereo or one that fits my car - Jeep Grand Cherokee 2000?
You’ll have to see if the back of your radio looks like it has the same style as mine did. You SHOULD be able to use the antenna adapter that I did, all parts in video description.
great video i have a 99 jeep grand cherokee lerdeo and i get all the wires right but there 2 wire the black one and there one that plugs to the head unit thats orange and white can you help me with this?
Nate Doom If you have an orange one coming out of the head unit, connect it to the orange wire on the adapter plug and the black goes to ground.
+Nate Doom I have the same car as you. What did you do about the antenna adapter?
at 11:15 I noticed a creaking/moaning sound in the background, my 02 does the same thing a couple of minutes after I turn it off. I think this has something to do with the hvac system, but do you know for sure?
Pretty sure its broken blend doors in the HVAC box. I've seen write ups online to fix it. Nice catch lol.
I want to put a touch screen in my 04 wj but I'm nervous that my steering wheel radio controls won't work after its installed...
madmanownzall Should work as long as you get the module I showed.
How did you run your RCA cables through the dash when you put your subs in? Cause im putting subs in my car and i wanna know a good way
Gus Wendt Sorry I just noticed your comments in the pending section. I ran them through the dash from behind the radio then pulled the plastic floor panels off that are on the edge of the floor carpeting. They are held on with phillips screws and panel clips. You will need to remove your plastic B-pillar (where your seat belt is) on passenger and drivers side then there will be a front and rear edging panel on each side that I was talking about. Ran the cables under the edging panels then reinstalled panels and had the cables come out of the plastic trim panels behind the rear seats.
I wired everything color to color but I have a solid blue wire (power antenna) an orange (dash light) and a blue with a white stripe that don't have matching wires. Am I missing something?
wkarl00 - the blue with white stripe should be coming out of the radio, that's your signal wire for an amplifier if you have one. The solid blue wire should be coming out of the dash. I generally hook the solid blue to the blue with white stripe. If you have an amp, the signal wire would also tie in there. The solid orange wire I thought came out of the dash and I thought there was an orange with white stripe coming off of the radio, I hook the 2 oranges together. If there's not a second orange then you just don't connect it.
Also, I have the Infinity system with power amp, so I had to connect the blue wire coming off the aftermarket harness to the red power supply wire -- the blue wire powers the amp.
So does that mean both my factory amp and after market amp will turn on the same time thank u I have no sound putting 15s in it this week just wired up the CD player but have nothing so if I.hook up the remote wire to the red wire I'll have sound what about my aftermarket amp I just bought
Shane Miller as long as you have a signal wire running from the signal port on the aftermarket amp to your blue wire on the stereo you should be fine.
Yes sir all hooked up working fabulous need to replace these damn tweeters
Thank you for the video but only thing I didn't do was not hook up the power antenna LOL
Shane Miller yeah those tweeters are garbage. i replaced mine with these guys 9 months and they're working great www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004309LTE/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I have a 98 Jeep Grand Cherokee will this adapter work on this and where did you get it and yes that extra plug is for your changer
I had Best Buy look mine up so i'm not sure. My '95 dakota and '01 Cherokee use the same filler panel as your '98 will (the more square one), but i'm not sure about the harness.
How Do You Know If You Have The One Plug Or 2 Plug, When Your Going To Buy Your Working Harness?
I’m not positive if there’s certain years that had each style but I would just pull the 1 trim panel and 4 screws for the radio to pull it out and verify.
What type of radio is that? It looks great with the interior of the 04
Sony CDX-GT710HD
Great video. My new radio doesn't have an additional 3.5mm jack. It's for the microphone. So I have to use the female 3.5 connecter. I read the instructions but can't figure out where the brown and brown/white connect to. Can please help? I have the Pioneer MVH-290BT.
Javier Gutierrez - The brown wire coming from the harness adapter? I didn't hook it to anything since my stereo didn't have a brown wire, does yours?
PkwyDr no brown on the radio harness. Nor the harness kit for the jeep.
PkwyDr the female 3.5mm adapter had the brown wires. But nowhere to connect them to on either harnesses
Javier Gutierrez - Ok I'm just slightly confused. I looked up your radio and it shows it has a front USB and AUX port, which should be a standard 3.5mm. So I'm assuming you're talking about the back side of the radio. Does the radio have a 3.5mm male or female port on the back side? And what exactly are you trying to connect/use it for? Microphone?
Are there other radios compatible with this video and all the parts you used. The Sony CDX-GT710HD is more pricey than the other Sony CDX models. Would The CDX-GT330 or CDX-GT250MP be able to replace it?
Yes, all of the other parts should work for almost any other radio.
The extra plug is for disc changer anyway to use this or do i have to buy a different disc changer?
I never used my disc changer anyways because I had my iPod but I think you would loose that function.
I have a JGC 2001 and after this video I saw how ez it was to take out the radio.I ordered a refurbushed radio online with a cd player w/cassete (current only has cassete),when i recieved it the connections for the harness was not the same .does it matter what year the radio is? i want to keep a stock look.
So the radio you have now is a factory radio, but has different connectors than your old one?
@@TonyTheTruckGuy yes the connections on my 2001 jgc radio runs across the back and has 2 prongs of equal width the radio i bought had connection holes up n down r/side of radio thanks for any help
Hey Tony, does this video apply for another radio? and what radio do you recommend? I'm looking at pioneer?
The steps should be the same for most other radios, the only extra thing you may have to do is run the mic if you get Bluetooth. As far as brand, it really comes down to preference of the user interface and what you're using it for. A lot of cheaper Pioneer radios don't have sub adjustment so if you have subs, make sure you get one that lists that feature. Aside from that, they are all mainly going to be 4 channel x50 watt output so sound will be very similar across the board.
So where did you ground the black wire? I'm sorry if it is a dumb question I'm just having some trouble getting mine to work .
There's a long skinny trim piece right above the steering column that pops right off and I used an existing screw to ground the wire to the metal behind the trim piece.
Thank you
I have the same exact radio and SUV but for some reason the radio never comes on by itself , after turning jeep on I always have to turn the radio on manually, how can I make this radio turn on automatically?
The yellow and the red wire are your constant and switched power supplies. Double check those are connected correctly first.
How do you get the remote wire through the panels? I can’t find a spot to get it to come through
The blue one for the amp?
What’s the brown thing called in the beginning of the video
The piece around the radio? That’s a dash trim piece or “bezel”.
I was watching this for the radio but I heard the clicking noise in the background near the part for the steering wheel controls. My Jeep makes the same exact sound do you know what it is
Haha, that’s the unfortunate sound of broken blend doors for the dual climate control system. I don’t have a video on it, but you can look it up on Google or some forums. It’s a common thing with a few possible fixes
Tony The Truck Guy thanks so much that helps a lot
it looked like you left the ground wire not grounded to anything, so is it fine to leave it like that or did you eventually ground it. and if so where is a good place to ground it back there
+Bryce Carlson I messed up during install, it should be grounded to a the black ground wire on the vehicle side if you have one otherwise I ground mine to a Philips screw that screwed into the metal support for the dash panels.
I have a JVC Deck, and I'm installing a system in my 99 Jeep Cherokee. Will I still need an antenna adapter?
+Cameron Cannon from what I've seen the antenna adapter is only needed from 02 and up grand Cherokees. I'm getting ready to put a new radio in my 2000 and didn't get the antenna adapter.
Very good video, but what about cruiser control? Does it still works ?
Never had an issue with cruise not working and haven’t heard of anyone else with that issue after this.
@@TonyTheTruckGuy great!!!! Thanks mate it's my turn to swap the radio haha
Good luck, let me know if you need any assistance.
Can you hook a after market amp to the2000 grand Cherokee factory stereo
I’m sure it’s possible, but I haven’t done it personally.
I have the overland, the stock receiver is different. Is anything about the installation different?
Lucas Markosky - Is yours the style that has 2 flat plugs? The steps will be the same, figure out what adapter you need and then wire color to color.
I have switch Steering wheel operate control Radio
bless you
did you have a black wire that had a black connector say amp on it that was just on a metal tab on the factory radio? if you did did you ground the wire or leave it hanging?
I had a black wire with a metal ring connector on the end of it and I grounded it.
+PkwyDr thank you. this has been the most helpful video on TH-cam!
Does that totally bypass the amp under the right rear seat or does it still use that? I want to put in a new radio and use a mono amp and single sub box (that I had in my older car) but still want the door speakers and tweeters to use the factory amp. Not quite sure how that works, Ive never had to deal with a factory amp before.
+JAYZIGGY5 This set up still maintains use of the factory amp, as far as the technicality of what you're looking to do I really have no experience unfortunately.
+PkwyDr Thanks man. that's all I needed to know. The back of the aftermarket radio's have an output for a sub which goes to the sub amp and then to the sub. So as long as the other speakers would work normally everything should be normal. ....except the stock 10 disc changer in the back. I forgot about that. I don't know if the head unit will control that or not. any chance yours has one of those?
Thanks for the video. Is there space behind the stereo? Can the antenna adapter plug be straight, not like the metra one which is under an 90degree angle. Will the stereo fit in then, or it's pretty against the plastic behind?
Thanks.
+MustAccord Should have room for a straight one if you can push all the wires out of the way.
+PkwyDr thanks, the ASWC-1 steering wheel controller fits behind nicely as well?
+MustAccord I wouldn't say it's a perfect fit but I didn't tinker with it too long I just crammed everything in and I was able to get my radio in all the way without any issues.
+PkwyDr I am just going through this now. You said that you didn't use the Black and Brown wires. There are two yellow wires as well (Battery/Constant), did you use both of them or only one? I put these two yellow ones together and connected to the yellow one (3 yellow cables together)
I connected my ASWC-1 pink cable to the brown cable on that plug, as it goes to pin 14 on the stock plug.
Also the ground from the ASWC-1 is connected to the black cable which was leftover and the red one to the red one (12V Ignition Switched).
I thought mine only had 1 yellow not 2 but as long as they are tied together like you have it then you should be fine. The black I ran to a ground, brown I did nothing with. As for the ASWC it sounds like you got it down as long as it's how I showed.
