It drives me nuts that I can't go back and edit this. I'm not exactly sure what I was doing wrong all those years ago, but I had the pinout *mostly* right. The EQ operates on a line level (actually a bit under that) signal, as you'd probably imagine.
The pinout for 86-87 equalizers is as follows, the DIN pins are numbered if you look closely:
1. Illumination
2. 5v constant (not 12v)
3. antenna trigger (I don't know what the EQ uses it for, if anything)
4. muting circuit (I believe it's high when when tapes are loaded/ff/rw/etc)
5. no pin here (it corresponds with 12v constant at the amplifier din plug, which the deck uses, but EQ needs the 5v for memory)
6. signal ground
7. right output
8. left output
9. no pin here (it's ground in the amplifier din plug, EQ gets ground from the DIN plug barrel)
10. switched 12v
11. right input
12. left input
The pinout for the amplifier has the differences noted above, but with regards to the signal wires, which are running from the cassette deck to the amplifier-
7. right rear output
8. left rear output
11. right front output
12. left front output
For 1988-1991, the pinout shown on saabclarion.se has the inputs and outputs flip-flopped. The pinout is as follows:
1. would be for CD, unused for EQ
2. ground, although separate from pin 4, and neither ground to chassis
3. illumination
4. ground
5. 12v constant
6. signal ground
7. right output
8. left output
9. muting circuit
10. antenna trigger
11. right input
12. left input
I'll circle back to this thread once I figure out what is going on with the separate grounds.
(I'm working on some breakout PCBs, so am trying to finalize these pinouts.)
