Big Headache

[98redxltz123]

I have a 98 XLT with a Pioneer DEH-3900MP. I took about the factory amp and spliced the wires together using the right color codes (98% sure) and the deck is wired correctly, but no sound come out of the factory speakers. I have an external amp and subs that works fine, but no sound whatsoever out of the 4 door speakers. I've been working on my system for weeks and one problem after another .. anyone know whats going on?

I would guess a short in one of the speaker wires, if one or more is touching eachother (+to- or + to ground) it will cause the HUs amp to go into "protection mode". Any way thats what was happing with mine until I found the short. I would double check your speaker wires. good luck!

Well I can say there is a 2% chance that you did not hook the wires up properly.

No wires are touching other wires and I followed the color codes quite well.. any other suggestions?
