I have an aftermarket wiring harness with:
1. Orange/white stripe says dimmer and
2. Solid Orange says illumination/dash
My JVC head unit has:
1. Orange/white wire
Which do I splice into? one or both? I'm thinking just the one that says illumination?
Thanks,

just use the illumination wire. Most cars don't have power going to the dimmer wire.

Thanks, I used the illumination one and it works. I ran into a different problem though.

What problem?
I was also wondering about the dimmer control.
Can you actually use the dimmer switch that controls the dash, to control the head unit dimmer?
