This info would really help if you can post it. From what I can remember:
Red wire: switched power (ignition) (Im not 100% sure right now)
Yellow wire: constant 12 volt (not 100% sure either)
Black wire: ground
Blue wire/s: remote turn on for amp and/or power antenna
White and white w/black stripe: front left speaker
Gray and gray w/black: front right speaker
Purple and purple w/black: rear speaker (not 100% which side)
Green and green w/black: rear speaker
Orange (if there): illumination

I will check one of my wiring diagrams in the morning and repost which wire does exactly what, but this is all I can remember for now.
