Hey you guys I don't know if you all even check out this thread anymore.. I just made a account just so I can ask a question on this thread.. I've had this thread bookmarked for awhile because I'm going to replace the stereo in my car.. I have a 2014 Nissan versa sv.. It has the same setup as the op.

I just got the last wire I need to start setting everything up but I notice that on the wire I have there's 2 ground wires coming from the head unit harness and there's 1 coming from the harness that plugs into my cars harness.. I notice you said don't plug them together but ground then to like a screw on the stereo like you did.... So am I suppose to ground all three wires to a screw on the head unit or anywhere on the car chassis?

I know this thread is old so if I don't get a response it's cool.. Btw I have a pyle pldnv77u

Oh and after reading up some more what I'm starting to get is that the ground wire on the harness isnt actually grounding anything because Nissan doesn't ground through the wire hardness but through the atenna or when the stereo is bolted to the car.. So what I'm getting is that the ground wire off the harness I don't have to do anything with that but the two ground wires coming from the head unit I should ground those to idk a stereo bolt or somewhere along the chassis

I actually got it in there and only grounded one wire and it ended up draining my battery.. So I took it out and just hooked up the ground wires together and its working.. It still killed my battery idk why...... As I'm typing this my car battery is charging..


I went back took it out and redid everything.. This time I had a friend who knows about putting stereos in cars and he said put the ground together with the one from the harness hooked it back together and everything worked fine.. Now I just need to figure out why my battery is draining

If you have any ideas on why it would kill my battery I would greatly appreciate it. I know it could possibly just be the battery
