Partial speakers working:

This guide is for Maxima that does NOT have navigation but comes with Bose sound system.

If you only have front speakers working, please locate this 12 pin connector on the main harness.

This connector is your factory Bose connector. Please note that there are two empty slots above the two white wires and also two empty slots above the two grey wires. Please check factory side connector, there should be two wires on the factory side that connects to the two empty spots above the white wires and so does the two empty spots above the grey wires. These two sets of wires are rear speaker wires. 

After finding this connector, please find the main power connector:

Notice there are a solid green and a green wire with black strip next to the white wires. And also there are purple wires next to the grey wires. 

To make the rear speakers work, locate the two factory wires that connect to the empty slot above the two white wires on the 12 pin connector, T tap the factory wire to the purple wire and purple with black strip wire on the 20 pin connector. Please connector the solid purple wire to the factory wire on the right hand side. Then connect the purple with black strip wire from the 20 pin connector to the factory wire on the left hand side. 

Repeat the same steps to connect the green wires on the 20 pin connector to the two empty spots above the grey wires. 

After connections are made, the rear speakers should be working.

The connector will look like this after modification.

If the volume is too loud after installing our radio, you might need to use a line out convertor on the white, grey, green and purple wires on this connector to lower the output.
