Stock Subwoofer Wire Colors

Okay, here goes. These are the three wires coming from the main amp to the sub amp ('94 shop manual):
GN/R Amplifier mute
GN/BK Subwoofer output (-)
GN Subwoofer output (+)

I was thinking about this and decided to look it up.

• The "Hot at all times" wires are BL/R from the interior fuse junction panel until a plug and socket just before the sub amp (It's one wire until a certain point and then two extra wires are spliced in). Then they become GN/W between the plug and sub amp.
  
• The three ground wires are BK coming from the sub amp but at the same plug/socket they become BK/PK after which they merge (somewhere) into one wire.
  
• We already know the three little wires previously discussed.
  
• The remaining two wires GN/Y and GN/BL (later BL/W(-) and BL (+) respectively) are the speaker wires.
  
• Therefore I'm guessing that the amplifier Mute wire is the on/off signal wire.

Since I've had the wiring loom from the kick panels all the way back completely untaped I can verify all those wires above. BTW, that was a huge mistake I'll never repeat. What a pain!
Cheers, Barry

***EDIT*** I've just added which is positive and negative coming from the sub amp. 07-30-04
