Um, thats not the correct Harness... I tried to use that same file when doing mine, but its incorrect. Ford is inconsistant with wire colours. First thing, check if you vehicle has the "Premium Sound" upgrade, if so, then u need to rewire everything, lol. If not, then just test the wires by cutting them, and hook them up to ur new deck as required.

I may have the diagram, I'll have to check. If you get a 'easy install' kit with the DIN plugs, the wires are all properly colored I remember. Other than that, red is battery, black is ground, blue is remote, yellow is ignition.

Have a 91 LX Vert. This one was pretty close.

Red went to a power source that was only on with the ignition
Yellow to a full time power source ( checked these with a simple electical tester)
Black to a chasis ground
Then speaker wires.

Good Luck
