so i finally got the stereo wired up and everything. but now none of the speakers are getting signal. i tested an individual speaker by wiring it right into the stereo and it worked great so im wondering what the deal is. :bite:

The radio harness might be cut somewhere, if you wired it directly to the head unit and it works just run new wire to each speaker, yeah it's a P.I.T.A but at least you know you did shit right.

Get a DVOM and do a resistance check on each wire, deck to speaker. Or, better option- do what he said ^ run new wires

factory amplifiers? if so you need to bypass them. there are plenty of right ups online about how to do it.

I can't recall now how I got my speakers to work through the amplifier.

The previous owner took off his sound system, so I got an old stereo from a Celica I used to own and install it with the factory wiring. I wouldn't get past the amplifiers. If you want to use the amplifiers, check their fuses if they are ok.

I had this problem and it was my stock amp that took a shit. It was actually only the fronts that went bad on me but the stock amp is 2 pieces 1 for the front and 1 for the back actually.
