Connection diagram for a radio in a VAZ 2114 car, injector 8 valves

Music is an integral part of our lives, it shortens the journey and the wait in the car; without it, any journey seems incredibly long. The musical preferences of their owners are heard from the windows of millions of cars, so why stay away. To enjoy life on the road and fully enjoy it, you need little - purchase and install a radio.

Many car owners who bought a new car for the first time are surprised by the unexpected lack of an audio system in the car, and even if there is one, it is not a radio, but at best a radio.

There are many manufacturers on the market that offer a variety of models with a huge range of capabilities. With the knowledge of how to connect a radio to a VAZ 2114, you can choose any radio, but some will have to suffer, which we’ll talk about.


Connecting the radio

How to properly connect a car radio in a VAZ 2108-2115 car

A radio is the head unit of a car's sound system. The GU has connectors for connecting to car wiring. But in order to correctly connect the radio in a 2112 car, you need to have an idea of ​​the pinout. This is the connection of the power and acoustic wires of the head unit to the power supply of the machine and its acoustic equipment.

Dictionaries interpret the word “radio tape recorder” as a radio receiver combined in one housing with a tape recorder. The device is installed on the dashboard of the car and is needed to play music, play movies and clips. What kind of radio is needed in a VAZ 2108-2115 car, how to select and install high-quality equipment - the topic of many thematic forums for motorists.

How best to install

The sequence of actions when installing a radio on a VAZ-2114 is as follows:

  1. Remove the plastic trim from the middle part of the instrument panel located under the climate control control levers. You must first disconnect the negative battery output from the car body.
  2. The casing has a standard rectangular hole covered with a decorative panel. Remove the protective element and install the mounting clip supplied with the radio into the groove.
  3. Carefully secure the mounting element by bending the triangular tongues located along the perimeter of the part. The installed clip should fit tightly in the plastic casing and not move to the sides.
  4. After this, the power and switching cables with the antenna and speakers are laid.
  5. Install the plastic console with the installed shaft in its original place. After this, you can begin connecting the head unit to the vehicle’s on-board network.
  6. After connecting the plugs, the head unit is fixed in the guide shaft.
  7. Install a decorative frame. It will close the mounting gap around the perimeter of the radio body.

Installing the head unit on VAZ-2115 sedans does not differ from the procedure described above. The cars have identical instrument panels and center consoles. The only difference can be in the color of the insulation of the standard wiring (depending on the year of manufacture of the vehicle).

Types of radio tape recorders

A car without an audio system is not a full-fledged means of transportation, no matter what technical characteristics it has. The car will not lose driving performance if it does not have a car radio, but the driver will lose comfort and pleasure from the trip.

Before connecting the radio in the car to the VAZ-2110, you need to understand the types of equipment:

  • Hi-end. This is an expensive device of good quality with excellent sound. But the functionality is not the richest: the device is not equipped with USB connectors and Bluetooth adapters.
  • C USB. The most popular car radios that play music from flash cards rather than CDs.
  • No CD. The most promising devices, since CDs are no longer relevant.
  • CSD. Diskless MP3 devices that support SD cards.
  • From DVD. The design of the device implies a display, since the equipment works with DVDs.
  • With Bluetooth. The system with Bluetooth has a speakerphone, that is, sound through a built-in or external microphone.
  • CD/MP3. These are inexpensive, universal, but already outdated devices. They are not produced, but the demand for CD/MP3 is still high due to its low cost.

Types of car radios

The devices are also divided into standard and multimedia radios. The first ones have poor functionality. The latter should be considered in the context of audio equipment parameters.

Radio size for 2108-2115

Multimedia systems are divided according to the German standard DIN 75490 from 1984 according to the size of the mounting socket:

  • Type 1Din. The width is the same for all cars – 178 mm, height – 50 mm. The system picks up the radio, plays tracks from discs, and supports DVD format. For the latter function, the car radio is equipped with a 3.5-inch display.
  • Type 2Din. The width of the device remains the same, the height is 100 mm, which allows you to install a 7-inch touch display.

The standard does not define the depth of devices, but for audio devices with discs it is 16 cm. Both types are full-fledged multimedia systems with which they can watch movies in the car, listen to tracks, and play information from USB drives and SD cards. Most importantly, the multimedia is equipped with a GPS module.

The most popular models and their characteristics

Before connecting the car radio to a VAZ-2114 car, study the rating of the best models based on user reviews.

  • Sony DSX-A212UI. An inexpensive (up to 3,000 rubles) model with adjustable backlight directly plays tracks from a smartphone. For lovers of rich bass, there is an “EXTRA BASS” key, there is also a USB port for flash cards and mobile phones, and a 10-band tone block that allows you to adjust the pitch and timbre of the sound. Four amplifier channels have 22/50 W of power.
  • KENWOOD KMM-304Y. Priced from RUB 6,100. you will get a device with 4x50W at peak power. The radio supports iPhone/iPod and RDS. If desired, you can connect a joystick for control from the steering wheel. The advantages of the device include multi-color adjustable backlight, 11 equalizer programs (tone block).
  • Pioneer DEH-S5000BT. For 8,980 rub. The Japanese one offers a car radio with a one-color screen, radio, and playback of tracks using AUX, USB or CD. Device power – 4x50 W. Connecting a car radio in a VAZ-2110 car with your own hands is not difficult - detailed instructions are included. The equipment supports Android and iOS operating systems - you can “talk” with Siri.
  • JVC KD-X355. The price of the product on Yandex Market is from 6,100 rubles. For little money you can buy a radio with adjustable backlighting and the ability to charge your phone. The radio supports all modern formats.
  • Pioneer SPH-10BT. Install the Smart Sync application on your gadgets (there is a holder for a smartphone) and configure the sound parameters of the car radio you need. The device from the Japanese manufacturer performs voice commands, and it is possible to connect a parking sensor.

Main nuances

  • Before connecting the car radio, you must carefully study the instructions, since incorrect actions will lead to equipment breakdown or even fire.

Connecting a VAZ 2109 car radio

  • In modern players with automatic tuning, due to the wiring features of domestic cars designed for older models, settings may fail when turning the ignition key.

Note: therefore, it is also necessary to study the features of VAZ cars.

How to install or replace a radio

Car owners, especially young ones, like to use musical devices on their own. To replace the car radio, you will need tools and materials: a jigsaw, a knife, a screwdriver, a set of screwdrivers. Stock up on sandpaper, automotive putty, and foam. Take epoxy glue and primer, electrical tape and a pencil.

Removing the old radio

Before dismantling the device, turn off the power to the car by removing the negative voltage from the battery.

  • do not pull the plugs, pull them out of the connectors with caution;
  • insulate the wires, mark them with a pencil so as not to be confused during installation;
  • understand the fasteners, prepare the appropriate tool;
  • OEM radios are usually supplied with keys;
  • Some car radios have “slides” that help remove the device from its seat.

Algorithm for removing the speaker system:

  1. Remove the front panel.
  2. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the screws that secure the device to the housing.
  3. Pull towards you and remove the device.

When you have the device in your hands, disconnect the connectors and remove the antenna from the socket.

Connector pinout

A radio is the head unit of a car's sound system. The GU has connectors for connecting to car wiring. But in order to correctly connect the radio in a 2112 car, you need to have an idea of ​​the pinout. This is the connection of the power and acoustic wires of the head unit to the power supply of the machine and its acoustic equipment.

Standard car radios (especially old ones) are equipped with their own connectors and connection diagrams. On the cover of the device it is indicated what color the wire is responsible for. This made it difficult to replace one model of musical devices with another, because an incorrect connection damages the acoustics and power system of the vehicle.

What to do if the new radio has a different pinout

If the standard car plug does not fit into the radio connectors, you cannot cut it off and connect it directly. In such cases, the connection oxidizes and becomes loose, which leads to repair of the car wiring. It is better to use ISO adapters with marked and signed wires.

But the car may not have connectors. Then twist or solder the wires, use a terminal block and connect the radio connector to the cable. Use heat shrink tubing for twisting and soldering.

What to do if the radio does not fit into its normal place or hangs in it

If the device does not fit into its regular place, you need to make cuts in the panel with a jigsaw. Having expanded the space to fit the size of the device, treat the edges with putty, primer, then paint.

For the opposite situations (the radio is dangling), there are ready-made frames for radios of different models. The mounting holes on the frame and the acoustic device match.

Is it possible to install 2DIN and what is needed for this?

The great functionality of 2DIN pushes drivers to install a new multimedia system on VAZs that are not suitable for large equipment. But this doesn’t stop savvy car enthusiasts.

First, determine the location of the device, cut out an opening in the dashboard with a grinder or jigsaw. It is necessary to take into account that before installing the device, the control of the stove is transferred to the place of the car radio.

When installing a car radio, it is useful to know

During the process of installing and connecting a radio in a car, non-standard situations often arise that cannot be foreseen in any instructions.

So, if you use a standard car antenna when installing a car radio, then sometimes the length of its wire may not be enough. Many cars are still equipped with antennas designed to install old-style radios. Their antenna socket is located on a “tail” that is only about fifteen centimeters long.

In this case, you can try to connect the antenna blindly after connecting all other wires to the radio. If this fails, then, most likely, you will have to remove the console and insert the antenna plug by touch after installing the car radio in the container.

By the way, after about half an hour of this “Kama Sutra” you will probably begin to think about buying a new car radio antenna.

If it becomes necessary to remove a car radio with a removable front panel from the container, you will need to insert two flat keys included with the radio onto the sides of it until they stop. But before that, do not forget to remove the front control panel - it is usually detached with the “Release” button.

How to properly connect a radio to a VAZ 2114: finding out the nuances

Music is an integral part of our lives, it shortens the journey and the wait in the car; without it, any journey seems incredibly long. The musical preferences of their owners are heard from the windows of millions of cars, so why stay away. To enjoy life on the road and fully enjoy it, you need little - purchase and install a radio.

There are many manufacturers on the market that offer a variety of models with a huge range of capabilities. With the knowledge of how to connect a radio to a VAZ 2114, you can choose any radio, but some will have to suffer, which we’ll talk about.

Briefly about the history of VAZ

It all started back in 1966, when the ruling, and only at that time, party realized the lack of civilian automotive industry. After collecting and analyzing data, it was decided to build the production and assembly of passenger cars intended for the needs of ordinary citizens; the city of Tolyatti was chosen as the construction site. And already in the winter of 1967, the construction of the plant itself began.


VAZ 2114

The entire construction was designed for a period of six full years. But according to the customs of that time, everything was completed ahead of schedule - in just over three years. Perhaps we are still reaping the fruits of the plant’s early commissioning to this day. At the end of 1970, the first batch of VAZ 2101 cars was formed and sent, which was almost entirely a FIAT-124 car. In the normal place for the radio there was a simple radio receiver operating in HF/VHF format.

How to connect a radio to a car

Consult an audio equipment store directly with the choice of the radio itself. This device will accompany you the entire time you are in the car, so you must immediately decide what you expect from it in advance.

IMPORTANT! You can get advice and purchase equipment in online stores, but always be careful, purchase car accessories only in trusted stores and use the cash on delivery system. Recently, cases of fraud have become more frequent, when Chinese consumer goods are sold to gullible customers under the guise of interesting accessories.

Having acquired the long-awaited high-quality “sound”, you will find that you now need to install it. Of course, you can go to a car dealership or find another workshop, but after buying a car, not everyone has an extra couple of thousand to work with the craftsmen. Therefore, understanding how to properly connect a radio to a VAZ 2114 with your own hands will come in handy.

To connect you will need:

  1. Selected radio.
  2. Tools that are present in any garage.
  3. Understanding the connection process.
  4. A certain amount of your time and desire.

If the first and third points are present, let's deal with the second. The first thing you really need to do is make sure there is a niche for the audio system in the torpedo body and check its dimensions. If you select a future radio that matches the size of the special section in the dashboard preinstalled by the manufacturer, there will be no problems at all, and connecting the VAZ 2114 radio will take a minimum of time.

In the fourteenth there is no standard sound, there is only a pre-allocated place at the bottom of the torpedo and acoustic preparation. The latter is the distribution of audio wiring throughout the car interior to four speakers.

Possible problems

Owners often encounter defects in power circuits, due to which the radio on the VAZ-2114 does not turn on. The cause of the malfunction is a blown fuse located in the mounting block or on the head unit housing. The element burns out due to short circuits or network overload caused by increased playback volume or connecting additional equipment.

The built-in display backlight diodes often fail and need to be replaced with similar ones. Moisture getting on the switch contacts leads to incorrect operation of the control buttons. The CD player begins to malfunction due to damage to the laser read head drive. Some radios are equipped with a built-in diagnostic system that displays error codes. Decoding the value will allow you to determine the cause of the malfunction.

As you know, old Russian cars do not have a standard car radio and therefore everyone connects it themselves. Here is one way to connect via a button, so that the battery does not run out and the radio settings are not lost.

Usually it is connected like this:

black wire - ground red and yellow are connected together making one and connected to the battery. (the red wire is for power, and the yellow wire is for settings).

So, in order for the power to turn off and the settings not to be lost, you need to cut the red wire and connect it to the button in any place convenient for you.

I installed it on the same platform along with the window regulators. (If anyone is interested in how to install them, you can look at my previous publication “Installing power windows on a VAZ classic with your own hands” -)

In the case of individual radio connectors, you can buy either an adapter connector for ISO, or cut the wires and connect them to the individual connector block according to the diagram (which is not recommended; in extreme cases, you should use heat-shrinkable tubes and precautions).

An important point when connecting the radio is to correctly connect the positive wire. To connect the radio, it is better to take it directly from the battery through the fuse. The diameter of the wiring must be no less than that of the radio connector. As a last resort, connect the radio from the cigarette lighter.

Example: standard connection diagram for a radio to reduce leakage:


Black - ground Yellow - power supply +12 volts, from the battery Red - signal to turn on the radio (from the ignition switch), low-current +12 volts (logical “1”). Blue - turning on the Antenna or other devices (low-current +12 volts when the radio is on) Diodes - any, low-current enough type KD522B

To connect the radio, you need to apply plus to two wires (red and yellow):

  1. Yellow - responsible for powering the radio memory (settings)
  2. Red - (power) turns off the radio.
According to the instructions, the red wire is connected through the ignition switch, so the radio will turn off after the ignition is turned off.

For owners of VAZ 2110 cars, in order not to pull the wire to the ignition switch, you can connect to pin 5 of the BSK block:


However, such a connection has its drawbacks, for example, you need to leave the ignition key with the passenger so that he listens to music, and even when the ignition is on, power consumption increases.

Therefore, often these two wires (yellow and red) are twisted together and connected to the permanent positive together. Now the radio always works, regardless of the ignition. The negative aspect of connecting the radio this way is the constant current consumption (depending on the model of the radio, the current consumption is different), which leads to the battery being discharged when the car is parked for a long time.

Correct connection of the radio

Although the seller’s consultations are important for choosing acoustic equipment, you need to know about some nuances regarding installing a radio on a VAZ 2114. Radios come in two types: 1DIN and 2DIN.

In the VAZ 2114, space is reserved for a 1DIN device, so if you want to purchase a 2DIN, you will have to modify the torpedo visor to suit the needs of the new device. 2DIN are common in America, Korea, China and Japan, and European cars, like the VAZ 2114, are mainly equipped with a 1DIN radio. Therefore, the problem of choosing one or the other option does not exist.

In the upper price segment, you should focus on: Pioneer, Kenwood, JVC, Alpine, Nakamichi, Blaupunkt. The products of these companies are of the highest sound quality, but also cost some money.

If you can’t afford such a solution or you want to save money, but don’t agree to lose significantly in sound quality, choose an option from the model range: Sony, Mystery, Prology. If you do not have an ear for music and subsequently do not plan to hold an autoparty using the acoustics of your car, then the difference will be imperceptible to you.

VAZ 2114, do-it-yourself radio connection

So, there are several installation options, which depend on your approach to choosing a radio. If you took the path of least resistance: you selected a model with standard connectors and dimensions suitable for the slide in the dashboard, then installing the radio on the VAZ 2114 is as follows:

  1. We find all the wires and terminals in the car.
  2. We distribute them according to the markings.
  3. We read the instructions and additionally double-check the electrical connection diagram from it.
  4. Now we separate similar wires and connectors on the radio.
  5. We connect in the order specified in the instructions of the radio.
  6. We install a unified ISO adapter (this step is additional; it is needed if the car's wiring connector does not match the connection option proposed by the radio manufacturer).
  7. We lower the radio into the dashboard on the slide and put on the cover.

The only stage where you may encounter problems is the additional one. Of course, the most correct way would be to buy the necessary adapter.

If for some reason you cannot do this, there are two other options:

  • less correct, but the fastest method is direct connection. Simply disassemble the wires according to the standard, clean their edges and connect them with regular twisting. An option that may subsequently give a spark that can create a fire hazard. Therefore, if you decide to resort to it, try to take care of reliable insulation;
  • A long and expensive method is to completely replace the wiring. This is a separate procedure that consists of complete dismantling of the car wiring and serial connection from the zero cycle. It makes sense to resort to it only if you are simply interested in it - buying a normal connector is cheaper, even if you order it from afar (from China?).

Preparing to install the radio

And so it was decided, we install the radio ourselves. What you need for this, first of all, you must obtain installation instructions, purchase all the necessary consumables, and assemble the necessary tools. And when you start, there is no need to rush and take half measures and decisions at random; all this may not come back to haunt you later. If problems arise during installation or when you don’t know what decision to make, you don’t need to rely on luck and ingenuity, you need to contact specialists, of whom there are now a sufficient number.

Do-it-yourself modification of vases and frets

If you are tempted by the multimedia characteristics of 2DIN devices, then in order for your radio on the VAZ 2114 to become “like native” you will have to worry about modifications.

To do this, you need to acquire the following consumables:

  • panel for 2114 (do not spoil the standard one, it may be useful when reselling the car);
  • polyurethane foam;
  • automotive putties, starting (fiberglass) and finishing;
  • epoxy glue (resin);
  • primer and paint (the material you will use to cover the panel afterwards);
  • sandpaper.

Tools that will be useful:

  • jigsaw;
  • mounting knife;
  • screwdriver;
  • automotive spatula;
  • brush.

The installation algorithm is as follows:

  1. We choose a place on the panel for the future radio (remember, the air vents can be moved, and most of the buttons move perfectly within 10 cm).
  2. We put the slide under the radio and outline the place.
  3. We cut it out with a jigsaw.
  4. Now from the scraps we assemble a full-fledged rectangle for fastening the sled. We cut them with a mounting knife and “plant” them with epoxy glue.
  5. We insert the slides and fix them with screws on four sides (there is a little secret - secure the future radio with a vertical angle offset, then the sun will not blind the screen).
  6. We select a place for the air ducts and lengthen them, if necessary, using corrugations.
  7. When the slides are mounted, we blow everything with foam.
  8. We cut off the foam and cover it with epoxy resin.
  9. We putty the start, then the finish.
  10. We prime.
  11. We paint or cover with self-adhesive.
  12. We connect the radio in the same way as described above.

Preparation and necessary tools

Before you begin installing the device, you should search at home or buy all the required tools and materials. To connect equipment to the VAZ-2114, you can take the same items as when installing the radio on the VAZ-2109. Among them must be the following:

  • mounting knife;
  • electric or manual jigsaw;
  • screwdriver, brush;
  • automotive spatula.

Materials you should buy include sandpaper, polyurethane foam, epoxy glue, primer, paint and special automotive putty.

In conclusion

As you can see, installing a radio is simple and for the most part requires only your desire. The main thing to note is that with any modernization not intended for the design, it is necessary to take care of the insulation of electrical connections and thermal insulation of coolants (corrugated air ducts).

The torpedo of the fourteenth, like most modern cars, is made of synthetic, flammable materials, so the issue of safety is very relevant. If you are not confident in your abilities, contact a professional workshop, because it is much cheaper than a burnt-out car.
