Equinox - Replacing Radio - 12/9/2007 10:20:09 PM    bxnyemt   Posts: 1 Joined: 12/9/2007 Status: offline I have a 2007 Equinox LS base model.  It had the cheep factory radio and no On Star.  I replaced the radio, but the installer was asking if I had a wiring harness.  They "hard wired" the radio, but now I lost the chimes that tell you when the lights are left on and when the key is left in the ignition.  I also lost the feature that the radio continues to play for a short time AFTER you turn the engine off.  Does anyone have any ideas or know where I can get a wiring diagram?  Do I have to purchase an aftermarket adapter?  Any help will be appreciated.
