Default Re: Violet wire with yellow stripe

The only time I've heard of such a cable is when a car comes with a factory installed sound system (Bose, Boston Acoustics, etc.) and the wire is present because the headunit possesses the ability to control (fade) the factory installed amplifier.

Outside of stereo applications, I've heard of them being used in alarms and keyless entry systems as well.

If you can't find an answer, my best advice (sadly) is to go ahead and wire what you've got, leave the wire disconnected, and turn the key to see if everything turns on.. :/
