Kia 1995-2001 22-Pin Reverse Harness

This Metra wiring harness plugs directly into the factory radio of select 1995-2001 Kia vehicles. It features a 22-pin connector that restores power and four speaker connections. The adapter eliminates the need to cut the original vehicle wiring during radio replacement. It is also suitable for repairing a harness where the factory plugs have been cut off or damaged.

Thermals Noise and Power Draw

The passive harness draws a constant 12 V supply for memory retention and a switched 12 V accessory line for radio operation. A dedicated ground wire and an orange dash-light dimmer connection complete the power circuit. No active components are present, so the assembly generates no heat and produces no audible noise during normal use.

Build Quality and Daily Connectors

Colour-coded leads follow a standard scheme: yellow for constant power, red for accessory, black for ground, and paired speaker wires in green, white, purple and grey with matching black-stripe returns. The 22-pin plug mates with the OEM radio socket for a secure fit. Buyers who need connections for steering-wheel controls, external amplifiers or antenna adapters will find those functions absent from this harness.

Questions about this item

How do I plug the 22-pin connector into the OEM radio without forcing it?

Align the keyed 22-pin plug with the factory radio socket and press straight in until it clicks; the key prevents misalignment so do not twist or angle the connector.

Will the wire insulation or crimp terminals need replacement after a few years?

The harness uses standard automotive-grade PVC insulation and crimped terminals; inspect for brittle insulation or loose crimps if the vehicle sees extreme heat cycles, otherwise no scheduled replacement is required.

At what point does the 12 V constant lead voltage drop become noticeable during long drives?

The yellow 12 V constant and red 12 V accessory leads carry the factory radio's rated current; voltage drop only appears if the vehicle's charging system cannot maintain system voltage under load.
