Pioneer CDX-M30 Power Connector Help Please

[all2kool]

The Pioneer CDX-M30 6-Disc CD Changer has a 3-pin plug attachment, the connecter in the trunk is but two connecters. On the Pioneer CDX-M30, what is the pin layout for the power connection? I keep blowing fuses. Winfred said the outer two pins are used, the middle pin is ignored?

Per the CDX-M30 manual, as you're looking at the back of the changer, the pin on the left is the positive/power, the middle is not used, and the pin on the right is the ground.
My power cable, and the others I've seen for these, have an inline fuse, but I don't know what amperage, it's not a lot though I do recall that.
Hope this helps.

Thanks Patrick. My CDX-M30 is powered up and flipping through the discs. Once the PIE BMW PIO/M arrives that I ordered today (for $50), I'll actually have CD tunes! Of course, this depends on whether the dealer givves me the radio code or not.....

To play a CD - lable up, label down?

[Jimbo]

Label down as with most changers.

Yes, on the cartridge itself, printed in a font only seen with a microscope, it said label down.
