Hi All

Ive got a 83 VR it did not come with a CB so I bought one only to find out I have the wrong wireing harness. Just woundering if any of you elect wizards could tell me how to set this up so it goes throuh the intercom system? I did get the push to talk button. I think the CB came off a 96 vr.

Thanks

Hey Bull!!

 

 

Thyere is a DIN cable that goes from the rear of the CB unit to the main power amplifier. It plugs in where the intercom cable plugs into. I am assuming you bought a Venture CB and not an aftermarket one. If you bought an aftermarket one we will have to make up a special cable for you...

 

EDIT: Just reread your post and I think you mean '86 VR. Hopefully you have a MK2 dash piece so you can mount the CB and the CLASS controller. Those dash pieces are getting hard to come by, the last one I saw on Fleabay went for over $80 shipped!! You will also have to wire up the power connector and the noise filter to the power connector. You will also need a splitter for the CB antenna unless you are going to run 2 antennas. I have a spare splitter.

 

If you can find a scrap MK2 dash piece you can do like I did and move your surge tank as far forward as you can and mount the CB where the MK1 control box goes for the MK1 CB. It just, and I do mean JUST fits that way...
