STEREO PROBLEM

[hellrot1977]

the guy that own the car before me put a aftermarket stereo in it , and cut the wires going to the BMW AMP that is in the left corner in the back.

NOW ,i put a sony cd car stereo in , i used the harness that was there , it was a bmw harness.

i have rewired the wires to the amp but i still get no sound.

is there a fuse for the amp somewhere .. i rewired it but doesn't work .
how can i get the sound on ..

was the sound working prior to you changing out the headunit?

well , i just RIPPED the BMW amp out and threw it in the TRASH
yes it worked before only back speakers, but only because of the out put to the amp from the back of the sony .
NONE of the the speaker connections from the harness work cause of the wires being cut from the amp . iT sucks . i guess i am going to have to run all new wire to the FRONTS.

[hellrot1977]

if i hookup a new wire to the FLOOR KICKER speakers , is it connected to the MID AND THE TWEETER in the door , how do i do this ?

There's something weird about the Sony wiring harness. You need to move one of the wires so it sends power to the amp all the time. I had to do it to mine several years ago.
