95 C280 Bose Amp Wire Colors
It seems that the amp has stopped working in my car, because no sound is played through the speakers. The radio powers on fine. Instead of buying a used Bose amp, I'm just going to wire in a different one. Before I do though, I need to know which wires are what at the connector that goes into the Bose amp. I have a PDF file that list some wire colors, but I wanted to confirm those are correct for the Bose amp, or if it's only dependent on the car and year.

Those look to be correct.
You may want to confirm for you model year on the Bose system. The oem speakers I believe are only 2 ohms and not the standard 4 ohms. If you use a replacement non-oem amp which 4 amps is the typical scenario, you may blow your oem speakers.

Thanks. I ended up figuring it out. Those colors in that diagram aren't exactly right, but I tested it out by connecting wires together and adjusting the balance and fade to figure out if the correct speaker is playing.
