Installation of a 2006 Pathfinder Radio
- 1). Lift the Nissan's hood and loosen the negative battery cable clamp with an adjustable socket wrench. Remove the cable from the battery and set it aside. Move to the inside of the vehicle.
- 2). Remove the two screws on the bottom edge of the stereo assembly trim panel with a Phillips-head screwdriver. Grab the panel and remove it from the dashboard.
- 3). Remove the two screws on either side of the Pathfinder's stereo bracket with the screwdriver. Slide the unit from the dashboard and disconnect the stereo wiring and antenna cable from the back of the unit.
- 4). Insert the faceplate adapter in the stereo dock and feed the stereo wiring from the back of the dock to the front of the Nissan's dashboard. Plug the two stereo wiring connectors into the wiring harness adapter leads.
- 5). Plug the wiring harness adapter lead connectors into the outlets on the left side of the new radio's rear panel. Insert the antenna cable lead in the FM antenna input on the lower-right corner of the new stereo's back panel. Slide the unit into the faceplate adapter until it snaps into place.
- 6). Place the trim panel back against the Pathfinder's dashboard and screw in the two screws on the panel's bottom edge with the screwdriver. Return to the Nissan's engine compartment.
- 7). Place the negative battery cable's clamp back around the negative battery terminal. Tighten the cable to the battery with the wrench and close the Pathfinder's hood.
