Default Aerial amplifier in MY04

I've put a Pioneer head unit in my car and now have no radio reception. After reading through some of the threads on here I realise I need to connect the remote (blue) wire from the stereo into the Subaru loom to give 12 volts to the aerial amplifier.

Can anyone tell me which wire in the loom I need to connect to please...?
Thanks

Connections should be as follows:

Speaker wires:

Red/Yellow trace = Front right -
White/black trace = Front right +

Brown/White trace = Front left -
Green = Front left +

Blue/Yellow trace = Rear right -
Red/White trace = Rear right +

White/Red trace = Rear left -
Orange = Rear left +

Power etc:

Purple = Illumination +12 V dc

Yellow/blue trace = Illumination dimmer + V dc

Blue/Red trace = Battery +12 V dc

Black = - or Ground ( as if I needed to tell you)

Yellow/Green trace = Accessories switched + 12 V dc

White = Antenna signal amp. Needs +12 V dc feed from remote wire or power antenna wire from head unit depending on how it is labelled, or if none available, use +12 V dc from accessories wire. (without it FM barely works)

Thanks mate - I sorted this last week with a wiring diagram and and electrical tester!

As you have said, I added a switched 12v to the white wire in the loom.

Cheers

Problem solved

The electrical aerial wire from the radio to the adaptor was cut. Joined it up and radio works fine.

Thanks
