98 XLT Radio Wiring Diagram

Question:

Does anyone know where I can get a Wiring Diagram for the radio in my 1998 Explorer XLT.  I have the dual media radio (CD and Cassette).  Specifically, I am looking for the wire that activates the audio mute so I can have my cell phone auto mute the radio on a call.  The radio has a phone mute button, so I imagine it can also be externally activated by grounding or powering a wire.  Any help would be appreciated. the -nospam) Thanks Anthony

I have a schematic for my 99XLT.  The radio information is limited, but they do show the pinout for connector C228, a 20 pin connector to the radio.  Pin 9 goes to the vehicle speed sensor.  I believe that’s used to adjust volume.  Maybe you can do something with that.  Don’t see anything marked "mute".
