I apologize I have searched on this forum and online for a week a now and I can't find a simple description of wiring scheme for the factory radio. I have remove it and I am try to install an aftermarket unit. I count 22 wires coming into the factory unit and I cannot assign a function to all of them. Please help. Thanks.

Yes I have tried camrystuff. There is a very technical wiring diagram. Not being a trained electronic technician I can't make out the diagram. I got most the speaker wire assignments but the rest is a puzzle.

What is your year and model of Camry and version of radio (standard or JBL)?
I will try and piece in the connections for you, this will take some time as I am on travel and have work related obligations.
The more details you can give me about the aftermarket unit will help.
I found an E-bay seller that sells the connectors that match the factory radio end and plugs directly into the factory harness and you will not have to cut and splice the factory harness at all.

"Kinda Hard to ID in a Parking Lot"
thanks Luna2! My only other question is are the two front speakers on each side (one on dashboard and one at the door) connected over the same line? I would think so because I only see total of 4 speaker assignments, when the car has 6 (4 front, 2 rear).

Again, thanks for the prompt assistance!
You are correct. One dash and one door on the same pair of wires.
There are other treads on upgrading the speakers, because of size and depth restrictions in the dash, door and rear deck (clearing the trunk lid lift springs for one) present a challenge.

front speakers is 6x9 but i dropped 6.5s into mine with a custom speaker adapter off ebay. also if u get the 6x9 custom adapters for the back you will be fine clearing the trunk lid lift. I got both of the custom adapters off ebay. just do a search on it on ebay. i installed component speakers in the front, so i just unplugged the stock tweeters in the dashboard.

Hello Luna2, u can tell I am a newb cause I am stuck again. For the orange wire "anternna amplifier power source," since my new unit does not have a wire designated for that, can I just connect the "12 volt out" wire from the unit to the orange wire? thanks.

+1. With the help of prefabricated templates it makes the challenge a lot easier to deal with. With the rear deck, remove the stock speakers and cut away the cone attached to the speaker bracket. Take a dremel tool or small saw and cut away the metal that supported the cone leaving you with just the round bracket. Once you smooth out your cuts, you can then use the bracket as a mounting template for your new upgraded speakers leaving clearance for the trunk lid arms.

I looked at the AV manual and it stated that the ["antenna"]orange wire pin has 12 to 14 volts on it, with the radio turned on. (12 volts engine off/~14 volts engine running)
It looks like it will work.....

Hey Luna, does your guy make a harness that would work for replacing my non jbl factory stereo in my 2007 Camry SE to a 2007 Factory Nav with JBL? I bought the nav unit and a steering wheel with the bluetooth controls, but I can't find anyone who seems to be able to figure out how to connect the factory system since the harness is completely different. Any help would be awesome, sorry to change the subject on the thread, I can make a new one if needs be.

You have several issues to begin with.
1.) The factory NAV radio with JBL has an external amplifer located under the front passenger seat to drive the speakers with the proper levels. (The factory JBL NAV radio doesn't have an internal audio power amplifier as in the non-JBL head unit.)
2.) Then there are important wiring differences in the harness connections. (Some while back, I was able to purchase some connectors off flea-bay to connect a aftermarket radio to the existing OEM (matching the connectors on the back of the OEM radio) wiring harness AND a set of connectors (matching the OEM harness connectors) to connect to the OEM radio to any harness using splices. My intent was to see if there was a way to make the OEM radio display a little dimmer at night, (and not cutting the harness wiring) without opening the radio (couldn't do it from the outside of the radio).
3.) The JBL head unit has an auto-diversity receiver. This means that there are two antenna inputs on the back for the AM and FM sections to help stop fading on the FM stations. The standard unit (without JBL) only has one input.
4.) If you can locate a JBL head unit to amplifier unit wiring harness, it will save you a lot of time. (This is if you have the amplifier,too OR a aftermarket amplifier to adapt to, so you can drive the speakers.)
From your question you do not have the pin-outs for both sets of receivers.
Can you PM me with location to send you a diagram? It is a PDF file of about 6 meg.
