I replaced my original JBL MR-18.3 stereo with a fusion MS-RA70. I also already had a Clarion XM1410 amp. Long story short, i replaced the stereo and everything works, but have some questions about some wires i am currently not using and if i should be...
1) Should i be using this yellow wire? On the JBL stereo it says it is "(BACK-UP B+)" and is connected to a 10amp fuse.

I dont have it connected anywhere on the Fusion stereo and everything is working...
2) On the Fusion wiring harness there are 2 wires i dont have connected as well... One says it will dim the stereo when you turn boat lights on...i am assuming i dont need this, but did anyone else connect this wire to their lights?
and the Brown wire (telemute) says it will mute the radio when a call comes in...Says it activates when connected to ground... Again, i assume i dont "need" this but not really sure how to connect...to any ground wire? Connect to stereo ground/black wire?

I am most concerned about the Yellow wire on the Yamaha. It looks like it feed back up into a wiring harness that runs back towards the back of the boat. Does it run to the rear stereo remote? to something else?
Any insight it appreciated.
