Questions about this item

Does my aftermarket head unit need a 16-pin and 8-pin connector to plug into the BHA5700R?

The harness provides a 16-pin and an 8-pin plug that mate directly with the factory premium-sound wiring in 1998-2004 Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles.

Will the BHA5700R still feed the factory amplifier if I keep the original speakers?

Yes, the harness routes the speaker-level outputs through the 16-pin and 8-pin connectors so the factory amp and speakers remain connected.

How can I confirm the RCA outputs on the BHA5700R are sending signal to my new amplifier?

Play audio through the head unit and measure AC voltage on the RCA pins with a multimeter; a varying reading that follows the music confirms the signal is present.
