This is a hand-drawn wiring diagram (uploaded as "subamp.jpg") showing how a subwoofer amplifier, labeled "Sub Amp (Silver)," connects in a car audio system. On the input side, three wires come "From regular Amp (Black)": a Black wire, a Bare wire, and a Clear wire, all feeding into the left side of the sub amp. On the output side, the diagram shows a Red wire and a Yellow wire leaving the sub amp and routing around to a gray connector block at the bottom right, where the Red and Yellow wires terminate alongside a red and a black wire on the other side of the connector. Also on the output side of the sub amp, a Black/White wire and a Black/Green wire are labeled "To Speakers," exiting through a small gray connector. The diagram provides wire color identification for someone wiring or troubleshooting a factory subwoofer amplifier setup, showing which colors carry the signal from the main amplifier, which pair goes to the speakers, and how the red/yellow (likely power-related) leads route to a separate connector. No year, make, model, part numbers, or fuse ratings appear anywhere on the drawing itself.
